    The legitimacy of depression as an illness.

    Hey, Thanks. That actually means a lot that you said that because I feel like I am just being judged on this thread. So it's nice to know someone has seen it in a more positive light. Yeah, it's easy to slip into that 'I can do it alone' attitude. I'm a serial offender, personally haha...

    The legitimacy of depression as an illness.

    Oh Jesus. Why would anyone want to advertise their depression when the majority of people don't even think depression exists?!?!?! You get abused if you tell people your depressed. People judge you, people look at you weird and people think you are some attention seeking, over-dramatic...

    The legitimacy of depression as an illness.

    I am totally aware that it is often a mixture of both biological factors and environmental factors. Although, I suppose for some people it is solely biological, as there is evidence that people have fallen ill with depression without any particular 'reason'. There is certainly a danger of...

    The legitimacy of depression as an illness.

    I'm not going to write a massive reply to this thread, but I just want to say that depression is real, and legitimate. I can understand why it would be hard to recognise it as a legitimate illness, because it really differs from most 'typical illnesses' in the sense that it is not seemingly...

    Depression and the HSC - how do you cope?

    Hey... Gee, yeah... I hope you don't find this insulting but you're parents sound like they are a little too hard on you. Maybe they don't understand depression so well? That's not okay that you didn't get special provisions. You can actually apply for them, i'm sure of it. It gets listed...

    Depression and the HSC - how do you cope?

    hmmm I don't know??? errr... should we make it something more general like: Coping with mental illness during the HSC or just... Coping with the pressure/stress of the HSC? I just think it might be nice to include ALL people that need help or need to vent, rather...

    Depression and the HSC - how do you cope?

    Hey, Yes, i'd imagine that being depressed and needing a UAI over 90 would NOT make it any easier. Have you thought about other ways to do the particular thing you want to do? There are back doors for almost everything, you know. So perhaps you could look into that. Ring up a uni or...

    Depression and the HSC - how do you cope?

    Yeah, that's very true. It is almost certain that we would have a lot of those types of people coming in to give others a hard time. I am keen to try it if we can get it happening too. Do you know how to create a group? x

    Depression and the HSC - how do you cope?

    Wow. Excellent advice. I guess if you keep pushing yourself you do, eventually, collapse, right? hmmm Yes it would be lovely if we could set up some kind of support group, I agree. But i'm not sure how we'd go about it. x
