what you describe is being sad and thats ok but depression where you need pills everyday or feel suicidal because you've lost somebody close to you or a girl finished with you is laughable to me.f**k that,thats being weak.
So are you saying that a young soldier that sees more horror in one day than you will ever see in your life time and may have come within a hair breath of dying that needs anti depressants to function because of ptsd is being weak ??? ..........
glad you brought that up.my brother is in the forces as is my best friend and sons godfather both paras both done multipul tour
