I have got two children,

A lot of people will try to understand depression but you find it takes time, it is very difficult.

The wildest thing I ever did was, one night at a Thai restaurant in Paris, I got wasted and stood up on a table full of food and sang ?I Will Survive.? It was during a modeling industry dinner, so all the bigwigs from my agency were there with a bunch of clients. I know it was inappropriate, but it probably helped my career!

My son is totally different. When your child has said how he feels worthless, he wants to kill himself, and there is no point in living, as a parent you do take notice and think where can I go for help.

The stress of dealing with a child who is depressed is ongoing, it is 24-7 and it is exhausting,

Children can feel, but they cannot analyse their feelings; and if the analysis is partially effected in thought, they know not how to express the result of the process in words.
