That's another huge problem that is a result of one of the benefits of a Segway... people who would only have a wheelchair as an alternative can get around without having people look at them and know they are disabled... which is very freeing for their morale but can also backfire like you said.

The funniest thing is that BY FAR the most comments about "laziness" and about "getting fat from laziness" are shouted from people driving SUVs and often (no kidding) driving with a burger king meal in their lap. DUH.

Sorry we are getting off topic with LD here... There is a difference between considering "proper" and "social" behaviour as a group and considering the behaviour of one person and whether that behaviour is "in character" or not.

I hate to sound "mystical" about stuff like this but LD maybe partly this happened to make you look at yourself this way... you could think of it as a higher force bringing something to your attention or else just a smart part of your already smart brain sending a message that there is something that it thinks should be explored.

This is an upsetting incident but in the end may give you a better handle on your depression.
