[hackerspaces] hackerspaces and depression

[Clement Quinson]

Hi all,
what we've seen here, is that hackerspaces can help people with depression
in that:
- they're among similar minded people, what can be NOT the case as an
engineer/tech person working in the industry.
- the space is some sort of a social circle, in which interactions can go
much further than just sharing tools/projects.
- people can work on meaningful and/or interesting projects, not only what
you're told to work on to pay your bills.
I may forget other aspects, but these are the main that come to my mind
right now !
