Guest guest Posted October 4, 2001 Report Share Posted October 4, 2001 , There are many people who go on disability because of depression. I think conventional widom is that many are trying to take advantage of the system. Maybe that's why they wnat you to go. I believe that depression is a real and can be dibilitating. However if ther is someone who want's to cheat the system it's an easier way to do it. No blood tests or x-rays. I know some people that I believe have done this and it gets me angry, because I think it makes it tougher for people who really suffer from depression. Sorry I want on a tangent. It's the government you can't expect them to do everything right. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been suffering with depression since I was a teenager and have contiplated suicide many times, I was always embarrassed to tell my doctor, until on day a few months ago I started crying uncontrollably and he gave me that depression check list and found that I had major depression {and graves disease, which contributes too}, and I think being sick just made it worse, I take paxil now and it has helped some with the mood swings and such, my thyriod levels are also at the low end of normal at the moment, but I still get that edgy jumping out of my skin feeling. sorry about the long note here, I guess I needed to talk a bit:} thanks for listening! take care, :} > > __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
