Personally, I feel that depression is a natural emotion after the loss of a child....I know that there were times when I did not even want to see or talk to anyone...I just wanted to be left alone to wallow in my grief....
Shortly after my Bobby died, I got the worse case of diarrhea I have ever seen...I had it for 6 months straight...I broke down bawling in the doctors office...My doctor put me on antidepressants and sent me to a gastrointerologist to check and make sure that there was nothing physical wrong...after all kinds of tests, the doctor said that there was not anything wrong....I asked him of depression could cause this, and he said yes, and I told him that within 6 months time I had lost both my brothers and my son.....he put me on something to help control the diarrhea, and said to give it  another month or so and if it did not start clearing up to come back.  It lasted for 6 months....and it stopped.  I am stillon the anti-depressant...I want to get off of it some day...but, when I try, I have days that I just want to cry all day...so, for now I will stay on them, and give myself a better quality of life...I am happy to say that the depression is not nearly as bad as it was in the beginning after I lost my Bobby. 
 
Yes, depression hurts...it does cause physical problems..and it hurts everyone around you and makes our lives almost unbearable at times.
 
If you have had a problem with depression...I hope that you will share your experience in the hopes of helping someone els...and maybe, yourself.
Love and hugs....Rean
