Dealing with my disability... HELP

Hi, my name is Conan and I'm new to this forum. It's nice to find a place where i can talk to people who understand. I'm 34 and have cerebral palsy & hydrocephalus, I am wheelchair bound and rely on my Mum and Support Workers to help me. I have struggled to deal with my disability and can't seem to come to terms with it even though I've been this way since birth. Ive been backwards and forwards to councillors but nothing seems to help. I was wondering if anybody also feels this way and whether anyone could share how they deal with these feelings? As a result of my problems I struggle with depression and any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Thanks for your post. I can completely relate to what you are experiencing. I had a lot of problems in my teenage accepting myself and my Cerebral Palsy. There is no golden solution I'm afraid. I am always around for a chat.
