I have no interest in White Dee or whether she's scamming benefits but how the hell can you tell if someone looks like they might be prone to depression?

I've been on anti-depressants for as long as I can remember but you wouldn't know it if you met me; everyone that knows (that doesn't have to live with me) is surprised.

Ridiculous statement!

I have a friend on anti depressants, been on them for years and she's a right laugh, mad as a box of frogs and the best company when you're feeling down.

I have a very close friend who is bi polar and another who has Tourette's, neither show outward signs of their illness as they have medication to control it. Same applies to depression, if they are on the correct medication they probably won't appear depressed, do you think everyone who has depression just sits sobbing all day? Ridiculous!

Who looks like they're prone to depression anyway?

Some of my lowest moments were when we had more money than we knew what to do with, everything was good in our lives and nothing could seemingly be wrong.

Now, I'm a skint student (and still depressed)...go figure!

I have been very public about my depression, here and elsewhere. I don't know anyone other than my closest friends and family would describe me as prone to depression. Us depressed mad people tend to internalise.

I didn't watch beyond the first episode so I can't say what White Dee is doing/has done.

Can I ask you what you think someone with depression looks like? I ask this as I am interested to know what the symptoms may look like. I too have taken medication for depression for a long time and can honestly say that people have always been surprised when I tell them, they have never said 'you look like someone who has depression'...

Sometimes those who appear to be the most happiest are the ones that are most depressed.

That's a typical statement from someone who hasn't suffered with depression. You can't tell if someone has diabetes but you wouldn't question them if they told you would you and say oh you don't look like a diabetic. You have no idea how people with depression look act or cope with every day life. The population as a whole could do with some education regarding the effects of depression

Have you never heard the expression "Inside I'm crying?" Depressed people can hide it well. There are times when you cry,panic and hide away because your brain won't function. Other people,apart from close family maybe don't see that side of it

Just because you have depression doesn't necessarily mean you are unable to work.

Agreed, I suffered depression about 7 years ago, I carried on working, hid it from family and friends - in effect only I knew and eventually my GP when I went to visit them. I was prescribed pills which I didn't really want to take and stopped after 2 months because they had no effect. It was the counselling and the advice to open up to my family and friends that saw me on the road to recovery and I haven't look back since. But, for the whole time, my work never suffered and I still achieved performance bonuses.

Good for you.

I have carried on working throughout my depression too but I paid for it in other ways. I still ran successful organisations but my staff always told me that the way I communicated with them changed when my depression was at its worst and they compensated for that. Even the dog and the cat compensated for my depression. I can see it now that I no longer manage people on a daily basis.

that isn't always the case though. Clinical depression can immobilise a person both physically and mentally. I spent months on a sofa unable to eat or sleep. My nerves were affected and I went down to 8 stone. Counselling would have had no effect on me at that time. After a couple of years I went to work,slowly getting my physical and mental health back. I'll never be my old self again or be able to take on the responsibility I used to. Recovery from a serious breakdown can take a lifetime. All you can do is face each day and be thankful you have that day to face. With regards to the woman in question, I saw a few minutes of one episode and have no idea what her background is so I won't make any kind of judgement. Some days the washing up is a huge task for depressed people and it's not always a case of mind over matter

Unless the op is a Clinical Psychologist or a medical doctor, consultant etc, who has spent time with Dee, then he has absolutely no right to make an assessment. If he is trained, and had made an assessment, then he should keep all of his patient records in strictest confidence.

There are millions of people worldwide who suffer from invisible disabilities and conditions. These people are usually some of the most disadvantaged, due to the ignorance that persists in society at large.

If you have nothing but good will towards those who are subject to health conditions that you know nothing about, then it is wise to keep your ignorant mouth shut.

If you read the thread, I've already said that yes I do suffer from depression and no, I am not claiming benefits as I am now a full time student having previously been an IT Consultant and a photographer for the previous 28 years, earning up to £120k per year (during the Y2K boom years) and on average about £35k/year whilst being clinically depressed for the majority of those years.

What I feel strongly about is people coming to incorrect conclusions by comparing apples to oranges.

I haven't suggested that you were ignorant or I'll-informed, I left that to others.

Your conclusion, however, is only one of many possible conclusions, therefore it isn't really a conclusion, just another opinion.

benefits scam is what it should be called! i'm aware there are genuine people on the street who want work! i'm referring to the ones who were happy to be filmed and were happy to sit in front of the camera and blame the government for there situation which I believe was their own choice of lifestyle

I agree with the above and she did steal 13k from her employer for her boyfriends crack addiction. I don't know how she has the cheek to sit in on the debate, blaming the government for her problems, she should be in prison

That incident happened a fair few years ago and she was punished for her actions. She made a mistake I think a fair few of us have made mistakes in life I know I have.

Good - underclaiming is rife in the benefits system, the real tragedy is that people are suffering because they are not claiming what they are entitled to.

she might be ill or very clever , did notice that during the show she never had any signs of depression that we saw and was always chippa and up beat even managing to use choice words in front off and to her youngest child . Depression can be one of the easy things to fake unlike say loosing a leg for a benefit claim ( but some still work hard with out a limb) And was her depression a result of her court case with her former employee who she scammed for a over 10k ?????

It's not about defending her. The odd bit I've seen of her she's seems someone I would not want to be around, but she is vilified because of the very blatent political agenda of an incredibly biased and sensationalist TV program.

And as some one that openly admits to mental health issues, I chose not to condemn others who I do not know and certainly wouldn't speculate as to the true extent of her problems. And that's not defending her, it's about total and utter contempt for those with the belief they can diagnose someone else's mental health and use their ill-informed opinion to making sweeping generalisations.

Depressive disorders vary greatly. Some can be all consuming and others you can dip in and out of. Add to this the severity levels differ too. Don't judge what you don't understand.

Mental health is still in its infancy and healthcare professionals are constantly learning. Most GPs don't really have much of an idea but funding prevents them from referring patients to the mental health team.

I have known a few people with depression over the years and at least ones depression started when her mother died (when she was in her 20s).

You'd never know to chat to them down the pub on a friday night.

Its not called the black dog for nothing.

Anyone who gets referred ought to appreciate their GP has more of the patient's interest at heart than other issues, as resources/funding is limited, sadly.

You can ask and the answer is no and no.

I have however watched depression consume one or two people I know. In one of the cases it fed into alcoholism. It ruins people. It is also a disease.

Its fine - I answered it anyway, just to show that people dont have to actually have mental disorders to think that help should be afforded to those that do.

I am lucky, I have had a couple of physical things, but on the whole I am fit and together and more than capa ble of running my own business and I think it is up to the capable to aid those that are less so.

If you are saying that she is fit for work, then by definition you are challenging her being depressed depressed people can work! "

Hunny not everyone can dig holes and lay tarmac depression or not you need to stick to what you are good at and reading this thread its digging holes as you are not much cop at being an amateur doctor.

Has it ever crossed your mind that they could be symptoms rather than the cause?

No, that leads to alcoholism when done in excess.

Depression is caused by some form of loss: job/loved one/identity/mobility/health... To name a few triggers.

If so, your opinion counts for fuck all really doesn't it? maybe not to you but its still my opinion! can I ask are you suffering from a mental disorder? you receiving Benefits?

You going to ask everyone that disagrees with you the same question until you find someone that is depressed and on benefits?

He is doing an undercover survey for the DWP "

I didn't know they operated out of Limerick!

Mind you, at least he can't wheel out the usual rubbish about his taxes paying for her lifestyle.

Unless he's just working out there of course; undercover for the DWP.

I did not see her drink alcohol in the programme I saw her drink cups of tea or coffee or whatever but remember alcohol is a suppressant which causes depression..those with substance misuse often have a dual diagnosis of both substance misuse and mental illness...

A depressant isn't a cause of depression. Often people drink to numb their psychological pain, so the problem becomes two fold if they become addicted.

There's a ton of research to suggest that alcohol isn't even a depressant. I'd post links but they're not from YouTube or mainstream news sites; just the countries leading Psychology sites.

Meanwhile, Chris Moyles has been caught stealing a million quid through tax evasion. And there'll be hundreds like him doing the same.

And yet it's people on benefits, stealing a fraction of that amount, who have their lives scrutinised and judged. Bah.

Also, when something is described as a 'depressant' it doesn't mean 'a substance that causes depression'

Good grief. Get a clue.

To be fair he didn't steal millions he had a creative accountant who helped him avoid handing over less the state.
