Why Do People Not Take Me Seriously When I Say I Have Depression?
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

I am 19 which is quite young I understand, but whenever I try to talk to someone about being depressed or how I have a mental illness a lot of people just say I am being over dramatic when I have been diagnosed by a psychiatrist and have been admitted before. Why don't people believe me? Is it just cause of my age?

A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

I read the notes from my meeting with the psychiatrist and now I feel really mentally ill. It seems that the freedom to read notes from the doctor makes me become my illness.
