Several health professionals have offered help in good faith along with forumites with either first hand experience of depression, or those simply wanting to pass on their good wishes to a popular and valued member of the fell running community. A good bloke who is obviously having a difficult time at present

If you want to bicker or debate I suggest you start a fresh thread in the usual place
When stagger started this thread he didn't give specifics. So all I've done is explored the various causes, including depression caused by making the wrong choices.

The rest of the comments dished out by others on here, are enough to make anyone feel depressed, because they don't contain the truth. All this 'we love you Stagger' isn't going to help him, he wants ideas to identify his problem.

If we're going to omit the possibility of a person having depression due to their actions, then we aren't helping anyone. All we're doing is sucking up to people with 'Auntie Maggie's remedy.'
