HERE IT IS IMPORTANT TO CONSIDER WHAT THIS 'CRACK IN SPINAL AREA' IS. BESIDES WHAT U CALL DEPRESSED ACTUALLY DOESN'T SOUND SO IF WE ARE TO SPEAK OF TYPICAL PICTURE OF DEPRESSION. IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT HERE TO CONSIDER IF THERE IS ANY OTHER COMORBID PHYSICAL ILLNESS , COMMON IN THIS AGE GROUP. SHE MUST BE CONSULTED AT THE EARLIEST FOR DETAILED EVALUATION AS THESE MAY ALSO BE PSYCHIATRIC MANIFESTATIONS OF SOME DEVELOPING PHYSICAL ILLNESS
