REEKCACH a écrit :Y en a-t-il parmi vous qui ont déjà fait une dépression nerveuse ? Si oui, comment vous sentiez-vous dans votre corps et dans votre coeur ? Était-ce une cause extérieure comme par exemple un décès ou une cause interne (constitution de la personne)
Si je pose cette question, c'est que je soupçonne que je fais une dépression nerveuse. Comme je suis TED, je ne vis pas ça comme les non-TED. J'aimerais avoir vos idées afin de voir plus clair en moi et aussi afin de trouver des mots appropriés pour mieux décrire ce que je vis.
À l'avance un gros merci aux personnes qui prendront de leur temps pour me répondre.

What causes depression in people with Aspergers?"

Développement:
Depression, like most things, is measured by degree. Everyone has days where they feel a little blue or a little out of sorts; where they are little more irritable and pessimistic than usual. But it is when once in a while turns into almost every day, and the feeling grow in intensity until you can't think of anything but how bad you feel, that you have a problem.
Anxiety
Anxiety can lead to depression for people with Aspergers. The feeling of getting up everyday dreading the day and worrying about what will happen can take a toll on you after a while.
If the anxiety is preventing you from participating in activities you would otherwise engage in, you might start getting a negative opinion of yourself. You might start to think you're not able to do the things you need to do.
People with Aspergers may have so much anxiety that they cannot participate in work, classes, after school activities, making friends, dating, or do the usual things people do. They have negative thoughts. They might start feeling worthless.
"I can't make any friends."
"People seem to hate me no matter what I do."
"People think I'm weird."
"I can't understand what my teachers (or co-workers) are saying."
"I can't get my work done. I must be a failure at life."
This kind of thinking can be deadly, of course. After a while, all they want to do is
sleep, or
go on the computer, or
play video games – mind numbing activities that keep them from experiencing the pain of life. They may cry a lot, become very irritable, snap at people, or just completely withdraw and do nothing. Some become violent. They may refuse to take part in activities outside of the house.
Isolation
Feelings of isolation can also lead to depression. Repeated social failures at school and bullying are particular problems for kids and teenagers.
At any age, a lack of a feeling of connection to others, even if the person appears to have friends (who may only be very superficial friends or may be teasing your loved one without you knowing it), can lead to feelings of depression.

What are some more
symptoms of depression?
Like anxiety, depression can manifest in many different ways. Depression can lead to serious problems such as drug abuse, problems at school or work, low self esteem, self injury, reckless behavior and even suicide. It is important for parents and school officials to recognize the signs and symptoms of depression because many with Aspergers will not directly seek help for depression until it is too late.
The following table lists the most common symptoms of depression in teenagers:

Overcoming the isolation and lessening anxiety are positive steps to relieve the causes of depression. For tips and proven solutions consult my books on Asperger's syndrome.
