When somebody asks you why are you depressed it is irritating. There doesn't necessarily have to be a "why" or there may be lots of reasons, but I don't like the way the doctor worded that. Before I saw a pdoc, my medical doc was treating my depression and he did not talk to me in a callous way like that. Rather, he would sit patiently and allow me to talk about all my problems and then he would offer suggestions and prescribe medications.
