This is an entirely understandable reaction to the various ways people react to those suffering from depression.

As I've withdrawn from the world, I encounter few people who ask what's up with me. With that, though, I employ a strict need-to-know policy. I reveal my diagnoses only to a handful of individuals.

Here are a couple of my favorite resources that might help some people understand depression:

Ellen's Depression Primer (MentalHelp.net)
Allie Brosh's Personal Description of Depression

Please make yourself at home here.
