9. Constantly jokes about being depressed and wanting to commit suicide because asking for help has gotten them nowhere.

The writing is so slow, it’s stressing me out

I thought the thumbnail says: *C R E E P Y T F*

I do all these things because I physically cannot open up to people and tell them about my depression

Did you just begin to describe me?

I’ve tried telling a very close friend how I felt and all she said was “how can you be depressed , you’re always happy and you have everything” and then she continued to turn the conversation back on her .i wish people understood that depression isn’t a look you can’t just assume “hey that person is rich, pretty and does everything she wants , there’s no way she’s depressed” cause that’s not at all how it works .

10. Might feel a *deep* sense of guilt and shame about their depression, so -I try- they try to hide it from everyone.

I can’t begin to tell you how incredibly accurate this is

*8 facts about me*

Yes, you can hide depression but when anxiety joins the party, thats when things start to get out of control.. After years, you tell yourself that you should open up and tell someone, so you tell them but they only tells you its ok, listen to your feelings for moment and next day act like it just disappear magicly.. You change friends, you change eating habbits, you change your look, you change your carreer, you change everything in your life hoping you jump of the loop... And about relationships.. You fall in love and for brief time, you will feel like your partner is solution for that, get stucked on them and after while it comes back and you just feel like you cant cope without them and be happy for yourself, you blame yourself, blame others, blame things, blame weather, blame lack of sleep cause you dont even can sleep right, so youre tired and go sleep in middle of day next day.. and then theyare some dipshits that tells you they are depressed after one bad day..

I have all of these...

I'm afraid to ask my mom if I can see a professional. She might ask me why amd start interrogating me.

I may need help with my depression...but I can't do it. I can't open up to people like that Edit:Thanks for all the support guys. I guess I can talk to someone about my depression. I really appreciate it..

I've never understood why most people love telling others their unhappy or "depressed". I'm never open to anyone because I know no one cares. The only time I talk about being depressed is online where no one knows who I am. Kinda helps me get it off my chest a little. I'm really good at hiding how I feel. I always pretend to be EXTREMELY happy b/c no one likes a complainer. I listen to other people's problems all the time and help them out with their issues. I learned the hard way that no one cares about me back in middle school. I use to be one of those annoying peeps who always broke down and complained about life. Now that I'm in high school and learned how to fake my emotions I have "friends". I'd rather want to be surrounded by people who don't care about me than alone. I'm constantly needing to be around people all the time. I legit cry myself to sleep almost every night and wake up an hour early just so that I'm able to convince myself to get out of bed and get ready for school. I absolutely hate opening up to people and it's obvious others like that about me. "I love how you're always happy!" "it's so refreshing how you never complain- you're the best therapist ever" I plan on committing suicide once high school is over unless I'm somehow able to feel better. I've been depressed since 4th grade and am now a junior in high school. That's 8 fucking years of feeling like shit. Dear Whoever bothers to read this and thinks I'm lying! I've already seen multiple doctors who prescribed me with depression. Pills can't even help me!

Some guy: Hey, freak, why u so quiet all the time? Me: Well you don't plan a murder out loud do you? *Guy leaves freaked the fuck out* Me: _Heh, fool, I was talking about myself, oh well_

when a person tells you about depression "I FEEL THE SAME" is the LAMEST phase that you would ever say. Just don't bother tell anything. LISTEN, JUST LISTEN. THAT WOULD BE THE BEST THING TO DO.

I tried to tell my best friend that I had several suicidal thoughts and that I had a failed suicide attempt. All she said was "Yeah, same" and she pretended to frown. I started to think that no one would be there for me. I would think "-no one loves me. I'm just an introvert who can't share her feelings. No one will ever care for me. I'm just a nobody and I shouldn't try telling others or they will say I'm just seeking attention.-" I personally wish I didn't have to wish like this. The sad truth is that the pain will never go away unless you try to let everything you've seen, heard, and felt go away. This pain won't end until you end. But you have to stay strong and fight through this, even if it feels like it will never end.

it creeped me out because im literally all of these..

Wait wait.... do I have hidden depression? oh wait... I've had depression for 2 years. NEVER MIND *shane dawson tongue pop*

as someone who is depressed, I can say that this list is very accurate.

no 5 hit me hard i used to love going out shopping etc but now I'm afraid. I'm afraid being in a crowded place. Meeting new people. People scares me.

I have depression, but it's not a secret. I've had doctors prescribe medication that never worked, and friends that always wanted to talk... Overtime it just got worse and worse, nothing was helping. And- Wait, why the hell am I writing my story on a lousy RU-vid comment? Nobody cares. What's the point? I don't know anymore... Go have fun with your lives, do something that matters. And, if you're still reading this, good luck with life. I don't have one to live anymore, so speaking from experience, don't waste it.

Depression is a trend and it really sucks

All the signs are there but people chose to either ignore these signs or assume that person is okay or will not attempt to take their life. We don't care or show enough care until its too late. #RIPJonghyun

i was diangnosed by my therapost i couldnt tell my mom becasue she thinks shes a awful mother and a failure she has it to and im to afraid of her menal state if i told her this.

I experienced all of these since i was in middle school to now but my family always tells me im just being an annoying cry baby yet they dont really understand what im feeling.... honestly i always feel like my family doesnt even know who the real me is

8/8 Huh Guess that’s what’s going on

Imagine having all of these but every second, minute, hour, day, week, month, and year,

It sucks when you just can’t talk face to face and you’re like ”may I please tell about everything through text” but no. People want me to talk. Also I’m introvert so that help a lot :) and everytime I start talking I also start crying so you can’t understand a thing. Thanks world :)

1)Yes 2)yes 3)yes 4)mabey 5)yes 6)yes 7)mabey 8)yes

Don’t think that you have depression if you show some or most of these signs, look at reliable sources and if you still think that there is something wrong then consult a professional. If you don’t think you have depression but you feel sad or depressed then speak with a therapist

*Me, eating on the ground at **3:24** am, with tears down my face* lmao wild

These are all slightly broad examples, and doesn't necessarily mean you have depression.

-never realised how many of these i have-

I do not look depressed. I laugh just like normal people. But I just do that so I don't lose my friends..

I do these things and i keep telling myself that i don't have depression because I'm scared that if i do then ill be sent somewhere to speak and tell them why I'm feeling this way and i will feel uncomfortable.

People with hidden depression hide their depression??? How did I not realize?!

I have recently been trying to convince myself I don’t have depression. I feel like I do and there are so many signs that I do, but I just can’t except it. Mostly because of my OCD. I also have no one to talk to. My parents wouldn’t care, they would just tell me that I’m just exaggerating. My “friends” are very good friends either and one of the main reasons I feel this way so I’m stuck holding it all in.

Take a moment to realise that 1.8 million people clicked on a video called: “8 Things People With Hidden Depression Do”

When you realize all of it is you....

New title: *8 Things 99% of the population does on occasion*

These hit extremely close to home. I knew I was depressed, but now that I know that other people show certain things like I do, I don’t feel so alone in this.

This is such an important video. Depression isn’t a visible illness, so it’s important to know that although it isn’t visible there are signs that show if someone may have depression. If you think someone may have it, take the time to ask them if they are doing okay, you don’t always even have to ask them if they have it. Even just offering your help, comfort or advice can help them.

Oh JongHyun

I hardly after 4 years of depression, I opened up to my father and told him a lot of things I went through he never knew about,, He said he’ll help me, in the next morning he completely forgot about it, Months went, My depression did really become worse, And He still... doing nothing.

This is like a huge punch in the core since it's all true. I'm from Asia and in a country that most people have less acknowledgment of mental health. But, I could always ask for help. Then again, I have no strength to convince myself to say it to others. I always feel all through these and it's making myself empty. Recently, I come to realize that being depressed is a state where you're gone with your senses and everything within doesn't make importance to me anymore. It's difficult to try backing up in my route on my own since I'll have to stand up in foot before I'll overrun this. I'm doing my best to cope with this myself since it's what makes me be. I'm stressed just about the fact that people around me couldn't genuinely understand as I always am to them. It's like I'm giving up on them without their knowledge. I always cry on most nights. I was always in pain and no one was there giving me company. I just diverse to any questions pertaining to their concerns or anything about me. I was like a deceiver who pretends I was okay since I keep smiling and laugh as if I'm always happy. Well, it's true if I say I am since it's what people say about me and what I would say describing what people think of me. Everyone, my friends, and my family doesn't genuinely know the true _me_ . I was skeptic to introduce _me_ to anyone. I always adverted everything making myself lonely. Simply, I have a lot of issues with interactions among people and like every reason of why I am depressed. But, I choose to be this way. I wasn't used to having changes constructing in my life. So, I easily diffused and breakdown - like I quite at a level where next is the finale. It bruised my pride and ego in some things of guilty making these decisions. I lost my way and I'll do anything to have my wings back to take me up to the sky (BTS plugged reference lol) again.

He literally described every single student in 8 sentences

more like 8 things 99% of the population does what even

Oh, it's like you're talking about me..

I have had 7 out of 8 of these happening to me. I'm talking with my mom about seeing someone. Some of my friends noticed and they helped me with it. If by any chance they see this comment, you know who you are and I love you guys for that. Thank you❤😊. to anyone who is having trouble with this stuff, know you aren't alone. There may be some people you can talk to and if not, just jot it down in a notebook or something. You don't know how much better you will feel if you just get it of your chest. Hope everyone has a great day and if you have anxiety of depression, I wish that best for you.😉🙏 take care👍

The most ignored of these, in my opinion, is the one about being easily irritable. Sometimes I get really angry about the smallest things, and no matter how many times I explain, people tend to forget that it's a depression symptom and start arguing. And I don't blame them, really. People mostly just associate it to sadness, and it's hard to change that stigma. Anyway, the bad part is: because people don't get that, we have to suppress the anger without actually managing it better, and believe me, it's not pretty when it blows up...

dang that's some good handwriting

Tbh, I think I have high functioning depression but I hide everything. All of these relate to me and I hate those people who just burst out saying they have it. It’s most likely that you don’t have depression if you constantly admit it and “show off” to people. I’m always smiling at school but my smile hides everything..😪

8 things that describe me

As a person who has both anxiety and depression, I laugh too much to keep myself from breaking down when people are around, bc its a side I cant let anyone see

Jonghyun tried his best, r.i.p...He did well, he will be always incredible even more, now that he is one of the stars...😪💛💛

I feel like this explained me a lot. My doctor had me do a test and it said that I had depression, but she didn’t want to jump to conclusions based on the test, so she left it alone. I wish she hadn’t. I just started changing and I have a hard time expressing myself, I start thinking I’m not good enough and I just have a hard time talking to people about it. I feel like it’s just taking over and I really don’t know what to do. I’m only thirteen.

Recently, my friend noticed the cuts on my arm. Now I am basically under surveillance by her. She makes sure I eat lunch and she doesn’t let me go to the bathroom alone because I’ll harm myself.

It's hard finding out you're depressed.

little reminder to anyone who is watching this, even if you go through all of these at some point or another ,, it does NOT mean you have depression. a video online CANNOT diagnose you ! the only people that can actually diagnose you are doctors and or counselors ! PLEASE stop self diagnosing yourself :)

Ever since I started highschool I felt like I have gotten depression, except I'm not the one who's irritable other people are by me, and it makes me feel horrible. I can't change myself, people make fun of my laugh, call me ugly, and say I'm annoying. It's really hard, I feel like in just sad but it's come to the point I get sad Everytime at school and I've cried multiple times bc I couldn't hold it in. Sorry if I seem cringy

Just recently I was diagnosed with severe depression. Once I told my mom all the things that i was thinking and such she took me to the therapist the next day. I can tell you that ALL of these are actual signs and I had all of these.

I just came up to my mom about my feelings after having a mental breakdown. The other day i complained to her that i did not know why i was always tired, yesterday i snaped and she said that i was always irritable (i actually broke down because she said she hated the face i make when feeling like that) so after a lot of crying, confessing my feelings of inferiority, low self steem and lots of "I don't know what to do, please help me" she hugged me and told me she loved me, she started making me remember things we used to do when i was little while cried my heart out (just the other day she stared at me, stroke my cheek and told me that she loved me and I cried because that felt too beautiful. I cant love myself. She didn't know why I did it at the time) but yesterday, after i told her everything she just held me and said she was gonna help me, she was going to support me getting help. And it felt amazing because I have been afraid for almost 10 years of her answer to these stupid thoughts of wanting to die and my emotions, but her answer could not be more far from that. My sister kissed my cheeks and held me too, i dont know what i have done to deserve them. They are my angles haha.

I tried to open up to my best friends about how I feel about life, even though I was never diagnosed with depression i am consistently tired and upset and i feel like a waste and that nobody wants me to be alive all the time, and all they said was, “Stop it Lynette (my name), the depressed act isn’t gonna work on you. We aren’t stupid.” I almost cried because of what they said. They take stuff like that as if they want attention or if they want people to feel bad. It really hurts and it sucks.

omg I thought the thumbnail was "creepy tf" like "creepy the fuck"

having anxiety and depression sucks, it's like anxiety alarms me to do something but depression pulls me back from being able to so my mind is a constant war of bad thoughts and fears.

1) They might not look depressed 2) They may often seem exhausted or complain about always being tired 3) They can be unusually irritable 4) They could have a tough time responding to affection and concern 5) They might frequently turn down activities they used to love or would otherwise enjoy 6) They can developer abnormal eating habits 7) They may start needing more from you 8) They can have bad days. And better days

I do all these things because I'm just afraid to tell anyone about my problem. I need someone to talk to but there is no one and even if there is, I wouldn't be able to do it. I'm scared and alone and I feel like completely giving up. I have no one that understands what I'm going through and i don't there ever will be someone who understands. The only thing that calms me down and gives me just a tiny ray of hope is music. Listening to BTS and Kpop to be exact. But that's it and I guess it's just gonna stay like that....

Does anyone know how I can get help for depression? I don't wanna seem like someone that self-diagnoses, but I really do feel like I have it. I've read many articles and such, and I have the symptoms. I also have symptoms to other mental disorders, but I want to talk to a professional about it. Because lately for a while now, I've stopped caring about a lot of things and think about how it would be better if i stopped existing, and it scares me. I don't want to tell my family because they are not the understanding type. They don't care. So how can i get help? Thanks in advance!

Woah, I guess I was hiding depression from myself? Thanks for this video dude. owo

I was recently professionally diagnosed with depression,and all of this is so true

Jonghyun, you must be have felt like this :''(((

I can't tell you how accurate this is to my life..

Great video thank you very much for the video keep up your great work brother

I am an avid #MentalHealthAwareness advocate and performer, and I love this so much. I travel the country trying to bring that awareness on stages, in classrooms, hospitals, and on my RU-vid channel, so I get excited when I see other advocates. 💙❤

Came here. RIP Jonghyun.

You did well and you worked so hard, Jonghyun 💙💪

Thanks for telling me that I have a hidden depression, its not like I didnt know it, but I was hiding it, even from myself

I’m afraid to tell anyone that I have these signs because my brain tells me to hide it because they’ll think I’m lying or doing it for attention

I do all of this thing's and I'm getting scared cuz I really don't wanna be depressed

Funny how everyone who watched this video mysteriously has depression without an actual diagnosis

Wow this hit home my depression isn't hidden to my family, but to others it is damn

I did ALL of these things when i was depressed. Wow. Thank you for this video❤️

I have depression since 14yo but at that time it didn't really show much..but when teacbers and friends ans family started treating u bad,or underestimating me,i felt annoyed and useless all the time thinking "maybe they're right" and in my country we don't have a psychologist or therapist so i'm stuck with depression forever,and i'm getting skinnier now bcs i don't have the appetite to eat anything,i always sleep wake up watch youtube then sleep again.. i live with my dad and he doesn't even care a bit of me.. he's always out of home,and comes back at 3am in the morning don't know doing what probably cheating from my mom..yes i knew that since i was 13yo and got really mad and never liked my dad ever.since.. but i just have to be stuck with him now..and with all my entire family hating on me... Wow that's long. I just can't do this anymore!!!!!

The weirdest thing for me is that I don't know if I have depression. I know that I am different from others. People at my school joke about depression and I laugh with them. I told my best friend that I think i have depression but she didn't believe me. So i played it off as a prank. I don't get over things easily on the inside. I act different around others. It's horrible to say this but sometimes I wish I had a disease so people would care for me.

I hide my depression in comedy and it really helps. My friends even tell me that when im depressed im funnier. Hopefully that helps someone become happier.

I can relate to all of these- Should I tell my mom? Lol

Take notes mom

Don’t expose me like that

The one about irritability is so true, because to today i completely lost it on my brother because he asked if i closed a door and i just got super pissed for whatever reason

I do all of this. I watched this just to see if what I do could actually be signs to others... SOMETHING TO STOP DOING NOW...

who else is watching this after the news about jonghyun? watching this so we could prevent this from ever happening again

Why is RU-vid recommending this to me after Jonghyuns death 🙁

I've been having these things for almost half a year now. I don't want to label it as 'depression' when I'm not sure it is. The thing is, I feel like it's getting worse every day, and I feel like I need help, but I'm too scared to talk to someone about it because I feel like they might say I'm overreacting or that I'm just having some 'bad days'. Does anyone have any advice on this? I really don't know what to do

I had this one year but later everything got bettet. For all the people wo had/have this: DON’T GIVE UP

8 things people with hidden depression do: Breath.

Is everyone just depressed ? These are very common things not very specific things

I would love to talk to someone about this, because I think i have depression, but it doesn't exactly some up in normal conversation , and I always fake my emotions so much everyone would think I'm lying :/

I've been watching all these videos about how to determine if you're going through depression and man, I confirm that I have all symptoms of depression.
