Hi all, if I was diagnosed with clinical depression in 2017 but after 2019 I'm perfectly fine and recovered will that affect if I want to adopt ?

@changesoul itshouldnt stop you adopting, but as part of your assessment you should be prepared to talk about what caused your depression and your recovery. They will also want to know about how you think you would manage if it reoccurs.
Adoption can be very triggering of our own emotions so you will need to bear that in mind and ensure you are in the best of health

good luck

Yes you are eligible, however you will have to be prepared to explore what triggered your depression, what you did ti combat it and how you would manage should it ever re-emerge.
