Nobody is immune to depression, some get it worse then others, while some are less effected by it. You will find out, however, that life is about perspectives, and perspectives are a result of how you look at things. This means you need to get out of the box you are in and talk to people like you are doing here. Also, anyone that gives you a hard time about "manning up" does not understand that we all go through things through the course of our lives. But, I will say that gaming, herping, girlfriends and anything else are about moderation; each of those things are in your control, meaning, you decide how much WoW to play, or, how many herps to have, or even, how your girlfriend stuff goes. At the end of the day, you can only control your actions, and your actions start with how you think, so start focusing on small positive things in your life and then graduate to bigger positives, whatever they may be.
