Cobalt - my problem with this is that it is rational. You have to be "high functioning" to Get It. I have had only one close brush with Big depression, and I have seen too close companions fall into its clutches. The striking feature about that kind of consuming depression is that it extinguishes not only the capacity to enjoy things, but even the memory or very concept of enjoyment. Sorta a "404 File not found" dealie. At that point the only binary choice is to live the pain, or to
stop

pain
