Can Depression lead to Insanity????

Because my boyfriend was depressed, and i think he was starting to go insane!!!

I'm pretty sure it can lead to things like hearing things, voices telling you to do things, hurting yourself etc........I wish you and your bf goodluck, he should seek some medical help, maybe even counciler or a shrink...

well first off- get him help. its can be hurtful to him and everyone around him. so please do something before anything gets worse. second- yes it can. it can lead to him hurting himself, and him hearing things, stuff like that. it can be extremely dangerous, so please get him help soon. i wish all the best for you. good luck with everything. i hope ive helped.

*** call your doctor please.

That's a good question. But I don't think you can go insane from having depression alone. Maybe he has an undiagnosed case of schizophrenia or bi-polar disorder. Depression can drive someone crazy, yes, but not to the point of insanity.

If left unchecked, depression can lead to very erratic and strange behavior that you might call insanity, but for all intents and purposes, depression is a form of insanity.

Is insanity really all that bad?

Joker and i think not...hehehe

sorry, i need to be serious don't i...? but i cant. Because i think i've lost it as well!

depression can't make someone go crazy, BUT depression may be the first symptom other people see if there is a serious mental problem.

try to get him to a doc.

please please please tell him to see a professional.
they get offended but it can save their life and yours too
