Tread with Caution

There comes a point in your therapy that you will be advised tell your relatives, close friends that you have depression and are being treated by a Doctor. Tread carefully!

Your family at first may not believe you mostly because they won't have noticed the signs (BUT YOU DON'T LOOK SICK.???! - It's a daily struggle feeling sick on the inside while you look fine on the outside.)

Some stay away and are hesitant to help you or try to learn and understand, some may still talk with you. It will be different for everyone depending on the amount of understanding you get. For me I needed to  stay away from family for a lot of reasons (perhaps another blog later on).
