I'm sure somebody has pointed this fact out to you, but you are more than two legs!. Adapting to a major change like this is an ongoing challenge, and it takes time to heal mentally and physcially!. There are plenty of people who have had similar accidents who go on to live very happy, rewarding lives!. Believe it or not, once they get used to using prosthtic legs, a few have gone on to run marathons!. Nowdays, there are actually very few limitations you will run into as a result of losing your legs!. You can learn to dance, run, drive- just about anything you wanted to do before the accident you can still do!. Maybe not right at this moment, but in time- yes!. Goofy as it may sound, you need to compare your situation with those of a few other people!. Your accident took your legs, but it didn't take your life!. You still have an active, intelligent brain!. You are not dying from some painful disease!. You are surrounded by people who love and care about you!. In short, you still have those things most important in life!. This stage of despair is not unusual right after you suffer something this life changing, and it will pass!. Things will get better!. You will heal, you will be fitted with prosthetic limbs, and go on to do all the things you dreamed of doing!. Someday you may even marry and raise a family!. Look for the positives in life, now and in the future, and quit focusing on what you lost!. There's no going back now anyway, and your eyes face forward for a reason!. Might as well look for things to be happy about, it's just as easy to do that as it is to be miserable!. And miserable is a rotten way to spend life!. Hang in there, things will get better!. In the meantime, you should mention your feelings to your parents and doctors!. They can get you some help to make it through the rough patches!. Just stay focused ahead, and repeat that things will get better!. They will, honest!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I am very sorry about your accident,but you still have your hands don't you!? Please talk with your parents, doctor and physio therapists about this as you can live as much of a full life as you want!. You will have to stop feeling sorry for yourself as it is not going to get you anywhere!. Talk to some other amputees through amputees helping amputees and learn from them!. Many young people your age are very active in sports despite their disabilities, playing wheelchair hockey,swimming, basketball and have gone through your depression!. It may not be the greatest time right now as you are missing all the things you once did but you can still enjoy life!. Please talk to your rehabilitation's specialist and a social worker or your doctor about your depression asap!. God Bless!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
