I feel I can not talk about having depression with my closest friends. Their negative reaction to the topic any time that I bring it up hurts almost as much as the depression. It's hard for me to believe that two ppl soo close to me would ignore something that has such a large impact on my life. All I want for them is to build me up a little when I'm feeling so low. That is the time I need my friends the most. Have any of you ran into this obstacle? I feel that they think I am being over dramatic or that I want a pity. How do you talk to your friends and family about it?
