I feel the exact same way. I don't like to tell people things that are wrong with me, like my depression, because they tend to look at me differently. Not necessarily in a negative way....but everything I do will become cause for concern, or they'll try to connect everything I do back to my depression. But sometimes I do want attention, I want someone to be concerned with me. I get this probably makes no sense, but I can be finicky and want concern on my terms. Sounds selfish, but there is nothing more annoying than someone bringing up my depression or acting as though I'm not okay when I'm actually having a good day.
