have you ever been depressed but hid it? instead of letting it s

wow i feel the same way!
I feel selfish when i cry over something, becuase i know someone out there has a worse problem.. then get mad at self.. etc.

Tho lately i have been more emotional, and like it seems like all my friends are acting differnt around me. Cry at random moments.. ya, i wanna get help, just dont know who to turn to..

I know how you feel... a while ago i let my depression show and my friends told the chaplain that i was self-harming, and then i told them it was good, i was alright with it... bs like that. So now the only person who knows i'm still depressed is my best mate. I put on a smile in front of everyone else, and noone sees thru it [i've been doing drama for 5 years, so i've had practice at pretening].

When you say about putting other people's hurt first instead of your own... this i also understand. I am the most empathetic in the group, so i am treated like a councellor. So, because i hide my depression, everybody's comes to me with their problems and i put that first and try to drown out my own hurt... does that make sense?

Anyway, hope i've been a help.

If ya ever need to talk, send me a private message...

I dont know if wearing a mask is wrong or not...I tend to not tell others how i feel because they already have to much on their plate...So i dont know if its right or wrong, sorry.
