The key is to make people aware.. and in US they are doing a good job of educating people about depression with all the TV shows and talks about psychology.. But I guess in other countries, it is still a stigma. I bet 10 - 15 years down the line it won't be the same !!!. Certain things change only with time - we can't do anything about it.. and just have to wait..
For now, don't say it to storekeepers !!! Why wave the red flag in front of the bull ??
As to your Doctor expressing shock - well, it is his problem.. if he can't understand it, then he needs to read more and learn more.
