"Help for the Lawyers with Depression"

Posted by Evan Schaeffer: "Here's an off-topic post as a public service.

Lawyers with Depression is a website "created for lawyers with depression by a lawyer with depression." Its founder, Daniel Lukasik, writes--

Since I launched [the site] two years ago, it has gotten national, statewide and local attention and been featured in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Law Journal, The ABA Journal, The National Law Journal, Trial Magazine and many others. I am also writing a book about depression in the legal profession that's going to be published next year by the ABA.

Lukasik also maintains a weblog about lawyers and depression.  It's there that Lukasik answers such questions as "Is There Any Room for Kindness in the Law?"

Please take a look.
