Wow, I'm surprised too that a support group would be so shocked by this. I thought it was a fairly common thing. Sorry you had to be subjected to that -- so not fun. I was shamed for it too as a teenager as my friends just didn't get it at all. Of course, they didn't really even "get" being depressed, either. But geez I would think a mental health group would be more familiar with it. Hugs!! It sounds like you handled it well and were able to calm yourself down.
