i suffered from depression for last two months and its not jyst that i had many attacks last year andd 07 had some big ones, i dnt get it why all this happens but its happens

Learn to accept people as they are, tolerance and forgiveness. It cannot be over emphasised that nurturing, the things another does is one of the best healers. take care and may Allah bless you and all our youth.
