Help, I think I'm depressed ...part 3 - who else is depressed?

What do Catherine Zeta Jones, Owen Wilson, Princess Diana, Stephen Fry, Ruby Wax, and sportsmen Tony Adams, Ian Thorpe, Andrew Flintoff, Gianluigi Buffon, Dean Windass all have in common - depression. They have also been open about their condition. We could probably add some biblical characters in there too: Jonah, David, Elijah - looking at the deep, heart-wrenching nature of their writings. For a full and frank look at depths of despair and recovery dip into the book of Psalms. For further information regarding celebrities and depression and how they are dealing with it:
