When I finally decided to ask my family for help, they responded with the same. As if them denying the way we feel would make it any less true for us.

We don’t understand depression until we are forced to endure it. My parents were angry at first, but I soon saw that they were learning more and more about it.

I hope your family can learn to give you that much needed support. Maybe you can teach them.

well they dont know whats going on in your mind or how you feel, they just see things as they want to see it

They can't possible know what depression is unless they've experienced it, themselves. Do what you need to do, and ignore people who don't know what they're talking about.

I wonder if this might compell some people to cut? And other unhealthy things. If they can't express in a healthy way, they do it in an unhealthy way.

Depression is God's way of showing us why we need more autonomy and freedom to act...
