I agree with the open post completely. While my own position on talking about problems is still work in progress I tend to think its not always a good idea to share with others. Most people mean well when they say talk to me and things like that, but do they understand, that is the big issue. They might think they do, but, do any of us understand mental health truly? It is trial and error, sometimes it will work and sometimes it will not. Personally I say nothing to my brother as he has a mild autism condition meaning his awareness is almost non-existent. The shrink I saw when in the psych ward I told very little to and even the T I saw on and off for 6 years I only half told her things.
As for the constant adds on TV and in awareness campaigns about 'Its good to talk' I do understand they mean well, but sometimes it's just not that simple.
