Do you believe that your physical disability, please indicate what your caused the depression, if so, how.

I have multiple disabilities, some are physical. I'm not depressed, but I have many years of being depressed. I believe that many factors have contributed to depression, but I think the most important factors, which all have to do to my disability. My disability is not diagnosed and treated until adulthood, whereupon some of them even worse than it should be, and when they finally diagnosed, there was little that could be done about it. I have always tried to seek help, met with disbelief or rejection, and almost everything in my head, or that things are better preserved over time. I was being bullied at school because my disability differently. I was abused and neglected at home. They mocked by strangers or random mocked (especially children and young people) in public. I had almost no friends or family members could trust and support me and help me through this. All this took me under pressure for a long time and I felt depressed.

I would not say that my disability caused my depression,but ignorance and prejudices about disability.

I have CFS ME / fibromyalgia and the pain and fatigue is so bad some days I can barely walk or sleep lead a normal household, it also affects my ability to think, etc., so that I can work part-time . I am frustrated and angry because he was not able to move freely through the pain of doing things, or with a little help, they have developed, major depression, which varies with the symptoms of fibromyalgia and CFS.

I also have a learning disability (dyslexia), not before 30 Was diagnosed with age, has never learned to read until the age of 14, I was intimidated and jokes, and some teachers even make fun of me for reading into the situation. This was affected only by my family was quite difficult at times, which ultimately is not in high school. So I think that this may play a role in my depression.

Studies have shown that children and young people were, and harassed at school and raised his family or the family was very poor, are at increased risk of depression later in life, because it is the confidence and self esteemlow. This disorder is also for young people with disabilities, physical, cognitive and learning.

Acute asthmatic'm functioning autism and moderate to a history of heart problems.

Depression? It happens. I do not communicate well with people and having panic attacks when I tell them to be close to - but at the same time, I am very lonely when I'm on my own. It surprises people when they find that I am with two children, but am married, my husband and I are separated and have not seen my children for the month. Autism contributed to the separation and made the drama even more difficult to bear.

Being autistic, which react to things differently. The criticism of everything he does, the complaints, even minor (eg password to the bottom drawer in the kitchen nearby), the pain more than I can express. Sometimes it feels as if the whole world is against you and nothing you can really do. If everyone is for you, unlike all others, is very hard to find, how to do things. I have a hearing and smell - the highs, also increased outside the range of normal hearingare not only audible to me, very painful. The safety of shopping (and some TV) has launched sounds too high for them. It is very embarrassing for me with someone that you have left, because the noise does hurt the ears hear, but do not say. How do you explain to someone who you imagine?

Before I shares, not asthma. I can not do at home, and most women. I'm unable to remove dust or aerosols or cleaning solutions. I think sometimes they just need to feel useful and in fact never.

I also have a bit spastic CP. Depression, oh yes, I did too. It comes and goes all the time. I think part of the pain is physical and the limits of what can or can not do in front of others, which helps me keep depression. The other part is isolationism. I do not have a social life or life partner, too. I work, television, computer games, play, play with my animals, playing with my niece, and in rare cases, family trips with my parents, brother and sister. Life is, at least socially, boring. I'm trying to cultivate new things to do in order to find morality. I think the new shows on television, search the Internet to learn again something happens and interesting is the collection (most recently, electric guitar), searching for new computers to play games, hang with my colleagues for a drink, a walk in the park with the family, try, try, in rare cases, exercise (easier said than done, know you).

I think, belong together, at least in my case, depression associated with my disability. I was in a train accident, nerves and muscles from the L2 of the hip was broken torn. Originally an amputation below the knee and is now above the knee of my right leg I (a lot of problems with infections have to date). There was a lot of blood loss (resulting in memory and learning problems) and the loss of my mother, who died in the accident (and not the family is found). I was young and I was found on the train and brought me to the Missionaries of Charity in New Delhi, one of Mother Teresa's orphanages had at the time. I was not exposed to many other diseases such as smallpox. I was in the U.S. where I live at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, where my hips back together, and had a nerve graft (experimental), which left me with nerve failed. After that I lived at Kernan Hospital, while leaned forward and pressed me to explain to my mother passed, he could not hurt me more, and finally metheir care (very good). I know what it means to tell a fantasy that the children can not bring myself to leave because of my amputation, which looked for all. sucks. Each therapist will, that I was forced to, said that PTSD is that I completely agree. Depression is a tough fight, I had to fight many times in my life.

Edit: lol, how do I get a thumbs-down to tell my own story.

Well, I did not have a disability, but my sister. And as cerebral palsy, was born normal, until he has finished eating, then the doctor said, it's a case of cerebral palsy. She can not walk, talk, it needs to wear diapers, because he should not get up and go to the toilet must be stopped, even through a tube into the stomach. With 20 years 14 years and I love my sister with all my heart! Sometimes, when I pushed in a wheelchair and other children make fun just looking down until then, I fear, smile and go, do not talk to or looking at my sister. So personally with you, I do not think because you have cerebral palsy and made fun of him has something to do with his depression. It depends on you, look at that, my sister can not write, but look, you, my sister has the attention span of probably a 1 years, but use these words here can not do anything to them. So, if you remember feeling started, depressed enough to point out that there are people orbefore they even worse than you, much worse. Only the best from your life, when people make fun of it is just because they did not know better, or simply to say, but what do you think about your business. Also, it can be said to live your life as if you do not have cerebral palsy, does not mean you should, as you go out and have fun trading! That's what my sister had to do, if I could. But, enjoy life, you only live once! : D

I hope that helped

XOXO,
Riah

I have ankylosing spondylitis, but that's all, but not a factor in those days. With regard to depression. I became very depressed at the school. However, some tough love, really fast. As it turned out not to be depressed, had much more in comparison to many people in the world. The things you thought you had problems (ADD, dyslexia, not to be popular, were, etc.) only in the big picture. My parents say that for me, and it became clear that my piss and moan pretty miserable. Since I had food in my plate and a roof over their heads. They were quite right. So my advice is that the only human being teased about making sticks and stones to worry. Note also that the situation could be much worse than it is now, and thankful.
