What is something Depression keeps others from knowing about you?

It's a hard thing to live woth when the people you trust most treat you like you're crazy when you address them with the concern of having depression, so for me, I guess the backlash of it is that my depression doesn't let me belong where I want to and leaves me "bitter" like they've described me.

when i tell everyone i'm okay and that i don't need help but people can lie and are the opposite

Every day is a struggle

Depression keeps people from seeing the real me, and it's a battle I feel weak showing people my depressed side. I can fake ok so well people actually think I'm ok.

Depression keeps people from knowing how hard working i am. I have it in me, I know I do because I've seen it shine before. But when depression hits me I can't get anything done and I just feel like laying in bed as much as possible. Hiding from the rest of the world. And giving up on anything that was once inportant.Which in turn can make me seem "lazy" or like a quitter. I wish people would understand..

That I am depressed. When I meet people they think I am an extrovert. I can be engaging, funny, and articulate, in fact, the more I am those things, the more I have people fooled about how I feel. I have become rather adept at deflecting them from knowing me.

Sadly, I'm gonna have to say... Damn near everything. I hate feeling this way. I get so lonely.

I'm actually really funny

I can be really outgoing, the life of the party, when depression doesn't make me withdrawn.

Depressionskeeps people from knowing how much pain im in, how scared i am all the time. I hate showing how week i am, how week i feel so i never say anything.
