Depression is a constant feeling of sadness and loss of interest, which stops you from doing your normal activities. Different types of depression exist, with symptoms ranging from relatively minor to severe. Being depressed is a kind of a disease and it also requires treatment. A person can have a number of reasons to be depressed. But being depressed should never be a reason to be ashamed. One of the main reasons for being depressed is that people couldn’t share their feelings with others. You need to tell your wife about your depression as she is also a part of your life. Don’t delay your confession by thinking about her reaction. Depression is not something that can’t be cured and as you are under medication, you will be out of depression soon.
