When family don't seem to get it #tiredofexplaing #DepressionSymptoms
Any tips on how to handle it when your immediate family doesn't seem to understand that you have depression? I've been diagnosed over 2 years ago, and when my symptoms sometimes take over (e.g. being in the dark, irritability) I get called out on the symptom in question without anyone stepping back and thinking maybe I'm in a minor funk, as I call it.
Any tips, or do I have to muscle through the misunderstanding?
