And just not talking about your condition isn't enough, there are some non-verbal signs, that i personally can't control. The problem is - im bad actor in general. I never could tame my mood and just change it according to my desire. So how to hide depression, so the people wont notice?
And somehow i think that women can sense depression better than men. They are more powerful at detecting hided feelings and intentions of people around them. I often get impression, like some girls can see right through me and feel like they should avoid company of such depressive guy, so in the result they behaving cold and distant.
I am realllllllly good at this. It is at the point where I can even laugh at school even if I am super depressed and miserable. It is like an instantaneous mask that manifests itself when I walk into the school. I'm also good at hiding it from even my therapist, which is a problem because he can't help me if he doesn't know I'm depressed......I hate myself though anyway.
