Shutting people out

[MrDawn]

When you're depressed, why do people take it personally when you emotionally shut them out?

I dont really get depressed usually but when I do I try to find someone to talk to

Shutting people out doesnt really help as much as you think

Honestly when people get depressed I have no idea what they are even thinking about or talking about in fact not even thinking right. At times I think you need to help them my more than yourself

I think you have to experience depression to understand it. Perhaps the people close to you haven't had the experience, don't understand it and tend to take it personally.
