I often find that the friends I have also have problems or mental health issues of their own. I don't purposely go looking for them (except on internet message boards!) but it does seem to go like that.
My opinion on it is that firstly there are quite a few people who have suffered from depression etc out there, and secondly that you, as someone in a similar situation to them, are more likely to recognise it in them or to be confided in.
Perhaps we also subconciously seek out those similar to ourselves...mmmm.....
