> For me, depression begins (in each cycle) with multiple thought-streams: obsessions about topics of interest, work-related issues, perhaps something emotionally laden but intellectually irrelevant, repetitious thoughts with little meaning, and at least one music track -- all simulataneously occuring along with whatever I also choose to be thinking about or working on. This uncontrollable "multi-tasking" of the mind is always my first symptom.

Yes, for me also, the depression is a result of
obsessing over some crazy idea. With religion
it was death and condemnation (LOU). At work
it obsessing that I was going to get sued,or
hurt someone because my work was substandard.
And so on. After awhile these thoughts caused me to get depressed.I've tried drugs for OCD but sofar no luck
