I am a mechanical engineering graduate of 2016 .While I was taking admission into diploma course in 2009 I had to appear for medical ,there the doctor told me that I have colour blindness so I can not make medical certificate. But on insisting he made my medically fit certificate. I took admission and forgot all these scenes. While taking admission in btech they did not take Colour blindness test so I again get admitted to my graduation. But problem starts in 2nd year. When I researched about colour blindness, I found that there is no place for a person like me in any company There I started taking tension. over thinking and started living alone. I did not tell anyone in family. Due to this I used to spend my all time in mobile .Slowly I got addicted to daily masturbations .from here my mind stopped taking decisions. I used to be very good in aptitude and math. I was a bright student but when I sat for my campus placement I was unable to think on logical questions. I did not got anu placement from college. After graduation I tried to prepare for govt exams for 2-3 months but I was unable to focus and performed badly so I left that.

There is no treatment for inherited colour blindness. If colour blindness is caused by another condition, treating the underlying cause can help.
