i’ve tried many ideas, like freelance writer, home-business. .. but it just when my depression come, i just can’t think.. or may be because i’m thinking on getting a job, it makes me depressed..
any idea of job ?

It is a competitive world out there. I have two degrees, but I have also been treated for depression. On medical questionnaires of applications there is a box for mental illness which includes depression. I am concerned that honesty is not the best policy, but I wouldn’t want to lose a job if it was found out later on. Thousands of people have suffered from depression, but people need jobs to stay out of it! I admitted to it for a student placement and I was stunned by the fuss that was kicked up. I had to get written clearance from my GP and was interrogated by the workplace nurse. Maybe it would have saved me a lot of hassle not to have mentioned it - and not mention it in future?
