D – Depression Defence
Depression is not an enjoyable mental position to be in. Having never personally suffered from this illness, I’m in no position to begin dishing out descriptions on how it feels to be in this deep state of dejection. From what I do know, it can cause high levels of fatigue, insomnia, overeating, pessimism, digestive problems, aches and pains throughout the body, feelings of guilt and helplessness, and even thoughts of suicide. People have been suffering depression (or melancholia as it was once named) for thousands of years and it continues to affect almost 20% of all adults in the United Kingdom today (1). But how does coffee have anything to do with depression?
