I could have gone on to the lake today with everyone from the office
to test drive our new boats. Being depressed and having to spend time
with people that have rubbing me the wrong way made me feel like I
wouldn't have much fun. Plus I didn't want my mood to be a party
killer.

Is anyone else an expert at disguising their depression? I can be in
the darkest of depression but nobody can tell because I can pretend to
be perfectly happy. I'll feel horrible inside and look in the mirror
and think I look as happy as can be.
