Good topic to bring up.....I have to say that those I do share with understand by knowledge. There is always that stigma attached to depression...when I would tell anyone they would say "gosh you seem happy though" or "can't you just snap out of it?". When you have knowledge about what depression is...it is easier to understand.

A couple of my really closest friends read various information on depression as well as panic/anxiety disorder since I suffer with that as well. That helped them and made us even closer as they "know" me more than they did before. My brother (who I am extremely close to) suffers as well so him and I share something else that we can talk and learn from each other too.

My bf has been supportive to me...we use laughter which helps me....him and I share the same sense of humour and that has helped me more than I can explain.

It really helps to know that you are not alone....that to me is such a good feeling.
