those comments i feel come from people who seem to think depression is just sadness...

depression is different ...
it is not something you can just laugh and get over... when you are sad someone can cheer you up... when you are depressed you might kill the person trying to cheer you up ... right..? not literally , just speaking figuratively...

if we could just be cheered up and laugh it off, we would...

sometimes i wonder if im making it up too.. because it seems to be something so alien to everyone... but like dexter said, i can feel it... i can see it...
its not something that others understand

so sorry you are struggling... i know it doesnt help to say that... but i understand...

im new at this stuff.. so i dont know much about insurance and stuff... what does it mean for your claim to be denied for medicine?
can you appeal it..? do you have any options..?

stay strong..
