In the area where I live men denied that they are depresse. Some women will say it but some will hide it too. Suicide is high here because depression is silent.

My husband has depression but he will never say it. He will blame how he feels on situations, environment, on other people, finances, on the whole world and on me. But never because he has an illness called depression. He will simply not admit it.

For so long people who had depression were call "crazy". Society is still ignorant on what this illness is and can do. It's like it is "tabou" to talk about it and for a male it is even a "weakness".

This is really sad.
