Hello Debbie Shonzt, Depression may exist with or without Parkinsons. It is not unsual for someone with chronc and progressive illness to experience moments of sadness. There are medications that can address the sadness and help you feel better. Beware it is a mistake to look at some one with Parkinsons disease and believe you are looking into your own future. Managing your illness is a step by step process. So wish you all the best to manage Parkinsons with the help from your doctor and all on this list. This is from a parkinsonian with nine years of experience.
