There will be two main types of people who read this blog: those who are better equipped to understand their loved ones, and those who see a reflection of themselves in these habits.
Depression is often unknown, unrecognized, or underdiagnosed. A person with latent depression is someone who is conditioned to deal with their inner demons in ways that are not obvious. They may or may not have been diagnosed, and it may or may not be something they share with their closest partner. The problem is that the world is at its darkest when we all stop understanding each other. We believe that hardships are exposed on the chest like battle scars, but many of these wounds are not readily apparent to those who don’t take the time to look.

The idea that all depressed people have the same boring personality is false. Depression is not just an emotional state. People with depression have learned to change their moods and may even be the “happiest” people you know. Personality can vary. Often, people with depression try to maintain positive and social aspects of their behavior, regardless of what is going on inside. No one wants to let others down, even if they hide how they feel.
