Do you blog about your depression openly? Should I?

Hi everyone, I don't think I never introduce myself.
I'm Bunny :)

I'm recovering from depression and I'm doing good for a while now. I was thinking to blog about it. Because I think people should be aware of disorder and get help and know how to take care of themselves. Also, I think writing about it make me understand myself more and more. Even thought my writing is need to improve

However, I have situation and holding me back

- Only my parents, my boyfriend and 2-3 friends know about my depression. Only my parents and my boyfriend know that it's a real deal.

- People around me see me as a happy, smart, funny and intelligent woman. (sign!)

- I live on a very small island. Multi-nationalities. And many kind people although many mean ones too. And words will be spread in a single second here.

I want to let it out. Let everyone know that. I am having difficult time too. But I'm afraid people might look at me weird and being negative. I guess my feeling is, I don't want to be a freak around my neighbor and have no one to play with ( if I were a kid )

I'm a bit confuse about it. Doe anyone expereinced real feedback from people around you after you publish your blog and tell the world that you have depression?

Thanks a lot

I moved your post to the depression section to see what others who have depression have experienced. :)
