How many times have you been told, or by how many people, to just suck it up? Your problem is imaginary. You are a malingerer. You are using this as manipulation. You could make yourself better if you'd just try.

Although I don't suffer, and don't believe a stitch of what I typed, I've heard these things said many times. It shows how misunderstood depression (actually all mental illness) really is.

Thoughts?

My ex-wife had that attitude until we split. She didn't come to the realization that it was a real thing until after we split, and by then it was too late to matter. (Strictly speaking, my issue is not depression though, is bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress, but "just getting over it" is equally ludicrous.)
