Yes. Thanks for the explanations.
A friend of mine didn't become depressed until after she enrolled in the nursing program and UNC. She had become sick enough to prompt her doctors to administer ECT.
At this point in time, it seems that we can't predict who will become ill and who will remain healthy when the same psychosocial stress is applied. Soon, though, I imagine genetic testing will be able to quantify risk.

I dream of things that never were and ask why not.
