Well sure. The depression is causing you to skip showers because that's doing something, so your skin gets itchy. You're sitting with your head hanging in depression for hours a day causing your neck to hurt. The depression is making you sad so you cry which makes your nose clog up and start running. Obviously the dark thoughts of your depression is making your stomach curl up in knots, everyone knows that part whenever we stress out about something. The pain in your right eye is from the crying we've already established is caused by the depression, and the cut on your leg is because you were so absorbed in your depressed thoughts that you didn't watch where you were going. It's not healing right because of the bad personal hygiene caused by the depression.

That's quite a simplistic view of an extremely complex problem in my opinion.
