I wonder why is this still happening

Why do we hide the fact that we are depressed ? If it is an illness that affects every aspect of our lives why is it considered taboo to acknowledge it in public ?

Because sadly, nobody cares how you feel, just what impact your behaviour has on the others. Everyone considers it your problem in the first place and your responsibility to take care of it and get better to be able to be a "functional member of society".

They don't want to hear about your problems. They just tell you to go to a therapist and return when you're okay again.
