Most doctors are understanding or at least know what depression is. Your doc will ask you about how you are feeling and try to get a gauge on severity. Like whether it is mild and you are a little down all the time to the point you are a danger to yourself. She will probably go through the symptoms of depression to see how many you have. She may suggest medication and or therapy based on your symptoms. I wouldn't worry to much, they are just looking out for your health, but physical and mental.
