Where the form says to list illnesses and dates when they began, would I put 1991 when I was first diagnosed with depression (been on anti depressants since then) or the date that it has incapacitated me from this time please?

I would assume the date you were diagnosed would be sufficient.

It's not really about a diagnosis so dates aren't really vital and they don't check anyway. What's more important is the information you put down.
