I've noticed in myself as well as in other founders that I talk to that depression is somewhat prevalent in the hacker/founder community. I'm interested in seeing the relationship between work and depression in founders collectively. Personally, I'm less depressed when I work more, both because I a) get work done, which makes me happy and b) have less time to think about things that make me depressed.

So, what is the relationship between work and depression for you?

    - directly correlated - the more I work, the more depressed I am
    - inversely correlated - the more I work, the less depressed I am
    - no relation
