Guest guest Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Dearest , I don't know that Still's particularly brings on depression as a condition of the disease but do know that it does with pain, life changes, added stresses as with most any chronic illness. I have had many times over the years of the type of depression you are describing and it's not associated with my bi-polar disorder but rather the complications of living with Still's. It is extremely hard when you throw in the mix of financial hardships as well as not being able to work when often we would love to for the money as well as the social interaction and feelings of self worth we get while doing something we feel is useful. Please keep sharing with us and talking about it any time. You know you can always email me personally at mellymelt@... well I forgot you have my addy and when home I'm always on and off the computer day and far into the evenings. I also take daily psych. meds but medications as with our Still's medications can't always fix everything and sometimes just sharing with another understanding person is the best medicine. And I know tomorrow is your birthday and I wish you can find something happy for yourself to do, weather it be to sit outside under a tree with a tall glass of something nummy and eat a cupcake and read a good book or just take a long soothing bath or shower and wrap into the softest robe and good smelling sweet things you have to pamper yourself with. Whatever it may be, please do it for yourself and for me to think of you having some joy. Or crank up that stereo for that favorite tune and dance even if it's with your fingers on the table. Happy birthday dear friend, I will be sending out your package. Love, Im at a really bad low in life Does Stills bring on Depression?? Recent Activity a.. 1New Members Visit Your Group Yahoo!
