Unhappy Depression in High Achievers
If this post is off pour taste then by all means please delete it.

Anyways, I'm curious, after struggling with depression for a year and just being diagnosed officially, I've been told that depression is common with "high achievers". Seeing as quite a few FIRSTer's do very well academically I'm wondering if this is a common problem. To anybody who is like me, and hid it for a year, don't. There's help out there.
