I didn't say any of you were lying. I was saying that you cannot say you have deppresion or anxiety without actually going to a doctor.

Like, you can't say you have cancer, because you have 2 symptoms. You have to see a doctor, and take tests. Because deppresion is a disease. A horrible one, and it shouldn't be diagnosed so freely. It seems like you guys WANT deppresion, with the symptoms you complain of. And it really hurts me, to see people taking this illness so lightly, and use the dreaded word so much. I do take it seriousy. And what bloody actions? Have I purposely ever bullied you and blamed it on depression? No.

I'm not saying I have depression. "I suspect that I have depression." and "I have depression." are two different sentences with differing meanings. Many of us come from troubled households where we can't even speak out.

Cancer is a physical condition whereas depression is a mental one. Therefore a comparision is impossible.

And we're not diagnosing it freely. As aforementioned, we suspect that we may have it. We aren't saying that you do. And no, none of us want depression. We just complain of symptoms. Nothing more to it. Considering how most of us are "socially impaired" this wiki is the only place where we can actually talk freely, and now, apparently, we can't talk about that either.

You have never once said you 'suspect' you have deppresion. Everytime you or someone else who is undiagnosed says that, they always say 'I hve deppresion'.
