"The best way to think of ADD is not as a mental disorder but as a collection of traits and tendencies that define a way of being in the world.  There is some positive to it and some negative, some glory and some pain.  If the negative becomes disabling, then this way of being in the world can become a disorder.  The point of diagnosis and treatment is to transform the disorder into an asset."​ - Edward M. Hallowell, MD, and John J. Ratey, MD

"If you know someone who's depressed please resolve never to ask them why. Depression isn't a straightforward response to a bad situation, depression just is, like the weather. Try to understand the blackness, lethargy, hopelessness and loneliness they're going through. Be there for them when they come through the otherside. It's hard to be a friend to someone who's depressed, but it is one of the kindest, noblest and best things you will ever do." - Stephen Fry
