I have struggled with depression since my late teens. At first, I didn’t recognize it as what it was. I assumed everyone was faking happiness. You may notice a theme if you have been following along for a while. Whenever there is something in my life I don’t want to deal with, I will assume that everyone thinks/behaves/feels the same way. It’s a real problem.
When I began dealing with my gender dysphoria and began getting it under control with my transition, the depression became front and center.
