I’ve been told I look tired and I’ve been told I look sickly.

I wonder if depression can make you look like that. My depression hasn’t been as bad, I don’t think. Yet people have been saying these comments. First one was a worker at neurofeedback, who said I looked tired. I had to lie and say I was tired, so it wouldn’t be awkward.

Second one was my older sister, she said she noticed I look sickly.

I don’t really feel like I look sickly.

I dunno it’s weird.

I have been told that too, but I'm pretty pale. Is this a recent thing for you? Your sister knows you better than other people, can she elaborate? Have you been eating ok?
Thanks for this!

It's a recent thing with people telling me these things. Weird thing is I'm tan skinned because I'm Hispanic. So I dunno how I could look sickly or pale.

I'd have to ask her, what she means.

I've been eating fine. Actually been gaining weight. Probably from the medication.
