Good luck. If it makes you feel better, depression is not as rare as you think it is; about four months ago, I came out with it to my school counselor and she told my parents. It turned out that two of my three brothers have depression and anxiety, and my father used to have it as well. Also, as a statistic from an anonymous survey I have seen, about one in four people admitted to having it at some point in their lives. I can guarantee that some people would have lied about it, so it is well over one in four people.
Â
Though you may think that I don't care about some random person on the internet, **I do and I will help them if it could potentially turn their life around.** Seriously, good luck to you and to anybody else struggling with depression. I hope you feel better soon.
Â
Lastly, I am not going to lie about this. I am going to be as truthful as possible. When you come out with your depression, the people that love you are going to be hurt. However, they will be hurt *because you didn't ask them for help sooner*. I know that it is hard to tell somebody else about what you struggle through, but please do it. You either have to struggle with hiding it daily, or you can tell somebody and not have to hide it anymore.
Take pride. 🌈
