I love Loose Women and I'm only 15 :)

I'm 19 and I suffer from Clinical Depression. I got diagnosed when I was 15 years old but told I had depression before that. I really love how brave Denise is, because it's bloody awful having depression, and people do just say "i feel depressed today" but people like Denise & I do get annoyed when other people say it, because believe us both, they have no idea what depression is.

I came across this when looking at the Denise Walsh trend. But for the record, why don't women wear wide-brimmed hats when they feel like this as a subtle warning becon for males.

[onyxtheforsaken]

@JennySilvertonx I know exactly what you mean. I've been depressed/bipolar since I was 11 and I hate when people casually say "i feel so depressed today" or worse "i'm so depressed now that westlife have split up" grrrrrrrr xx

Lynda is totally arrogant and grotesque here. It's actually hard to watch her without cringing.

[TIVAchristolly]

Oh throughout her entire speech I just wanted to reach out and give her a hug but I was compleatley awed howeven though it was obviously hard for her and emotional she could still joke with her friends and she coped! She is one of the most amazingly strong willed women i have ever seen!!!! GO ON DENISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lynda Bellingham is way out of her depth!

I'm a guy who has had clinical depression who was also diagnosed at 15, and although hormone imbalances may affect men and women differently and with me it wasn't necessarily a byproduct of hormone imbalance (rather that of having ASD), I relate to Denise saying about finding someone who could take it seriously - a LOT of people don't understand exactly what depression is, and there needs to be more people who understand that it is a condition and not just an annoying personality trait.

I think I'm like the only guy here aha, oh well I'm gay and I love this show :L
