I learned the hard way to not show my depression in public with friends. Lost a LOT of friends that way. I'm ashamed to even have anxiety, bipolar depression. So... I'm going to hide it from now on. No exceptions.

I don't think pills are the answer either ,starkizzed ...they may help take the edge off for some but I think getting to the root of the real problem ,what's causing it is the best way to go for me ...everyone is different . I understand there are people with clinical depression and that it has to do with brain function etc ...I'm not a neurologist but I've read up on this stuff ...not an expert either , just my own opinion ...
