Thank you for writing this brave and necessary post. The so called mood disorders (depression, anxiety) are unfortunately burdened with historical stigma, in part due to gender and the feminization of emotions, as well as our national ethos of pulling yourself up by your bootstraps and getting on with your life. Neither allows for the simple state of being human.
