Although present day Halloween activities revolve around trick-or-treating and costume parties, historically masks were worn to placate the evil spirits. You may not be frightened by pumpkins carved into eerie faces nor believe in witches and goblins. But when is the last time you thought seriously about the “ghosts” that have been haunting you far too long?

The negative feelings that you may be experiencing - from time to time or perhaps more regularly - could be due to normal unhappiness, stress from overload, situational sadness, or even clinical depression.
