I think yes,they would be very depressed and that depression due to the circumstanses would be considerd mental illnes.I think they would be put on medication to help them deal with the worry and stress.circumstansual depression if sever enough would cause black depression that would need medication,i would think anyways.Just my vew.

I think it’s the term mental illness which I have a problem with. The definition of a mental illness is ” a condition which causes serious disorder in a person’s behaviour or thinking.” To me that signifies a way of acting which isn’t conducive to “normality” or logic and not within the normal parameters of behaviour ( if normality is deemed to be aspired to). If someone is depressed due to circumstances which would depress virtually anyone, it isn’t a mental illness or sign that their brain needs treating but their circumstances. Mentally ill people in my eyes are people with disorders of their brain and not people who are depressed due to lifes events which would depress anyone.

Like certain illnesses, such as diabetes, anxiety disorders might be caused by chemical imbalances in the body. Studies have shown that severe or long-lasting stress can change the balance of chemicals in the brain that control mood. Studies also have shown that anxiety disorders run in families, which means that they can be inherited from one or both parents, like hair or eye color. In addition, certain environmental factors — such as a trauma or significant event — might trigger an anxiety disorder in people who have an inherited susceptibility to developing the disorder.I think this to be true.Ifeel that prelonged stress is bound to triger an imbalance in the brain in some people.

I think the more mental health is studied the more is learned.Having been ill with mental health problems for so long it has gave me an insight in to my illness and a little insight to geniral mental health.

Excuse me ?????? what about magnificent knickers !!  How!! Roood !!!

I’m almost tempted to post about tragedy, putting things in boxes,  I have done that many times for reasons not debatable, and not anyone else’s business… not in a bad way, just  a way to cope when others rely on you,    kinda called getting on with it,  and not bigging yourself up for doing it ? isn’t that what people just do ? everyday ?  I think it’s called putting loved ones before yourself … If You Can … without expecting a medal or a mention, obviously I don’t mean you Nem, just so no wires are crossed lol xx

Crack on Nem , the Box thing is certainly what I have done,  some may see it as a bad thing but in my life it helped me cope with tragedy that i was really too young to cope with, years on I am ok with it, still heart breaking, especially looking back and being so young, I am very proud of myself for just coping,  ppl who know.  know ..  and sometimes people who know disregard it if it suits their attack …. but good on you tackling this and doing it openly, tho I do fear you will get the JC experts and the JC cynics !!    be brave lol

hope the knickers aint scratchy !! xx
