Re: depression/DDA
If your mental illness affects your ability to carry out day-to-day activities then you are likely to be covered by the Disability Discrimination Act.
For example, someone with a mild form of depression with only minor effects may not be covered. But someone with severe depression with substantial effects on their daily life is likely to be considered as disabled under the Act.
