Sometimes individuals may not be aware they are suffering from depression. The fog and fatigue do not compute internally that they are depressed. This is because most associate depression with cause and effect. If nothing bad has happened, how can I be depressed? The reality is depression is sometimes chemical and one can become stricken with it without a cause. Individuals can help others better face hidden depression by being aware of the behaviors displayed.
Individuals for multiple reasons also look to hide their depression. Introverts especially do not like to share emotions and will try to hide symptoms.
