When most people imagine a depressed individual, they think of someone who looks sad or cries a lot. And while it's true that sadness and unexplained bouts of crying are common characteristics of depression, not everyone looks sad when they’re depressed. Typically, smiling depression occurs when individuals who are experiencing depression mask their symptoms. They hide behind a smile to convince other people that they are happy or they look happy to the outside world and keep their depression a secret. Consequently, many individuals don’t want to burden anyone else with their struggles. This fact may be especially true for people who are used to taking care of others rather than having others take care of them. They simply do not know how to ask for help, so they keep their struggles to themselves. Just Talk. Talk therapy and medication are the best cure to overcome this. Talk about the problems with your close ones, take a trip with them. Entertain yourself. This fake smile won't last much.
