Depressed people experience a lot of shame. I do. The feeling of "what's new" is shame based but so is anger and lashing out. Defensive behavior. It is because you don't want people to see what you "see" so you put up a wall. It makes taking criticism rather difficult. I can put up a front at work and take it very well. It is a different story in my personal life.
