Did depression give you courage?

Asked by JLeslie (65445points) October 17th, 2013

Part of depression can be less worry about dying. It can cause people to take risks they otherwise wouldn’t. Some risks are good; fear can stop us from doing things that are worth the risk.

I realize depression can rob us of energy and focus, so it is a complicated matter.

I am not really talking about taking risks like dare devil antics, although it could be. I am thinking more in terms of taking a risk to try something you have always wanted to whether it be regarding your profession, relationships, travel anything really.
