This is important. Some of us have no choice but to be “functioning”. I have no one to support me if I lose my job from not showing up because my depression makes it hard to get out of bed. I can’t just break down and lose it when I have bad days. When I’m honest about how bad things are, it makes other people uncomfortable and sad so it stays to ourselves. So this is very needed, thank you for posting it.
I didn't drink today. Nobody knows I have a drinking problem, so I'm not going to see my friends until my mood evens out, but I haven't had a drink today.

Every time I read these I just imagine everyone is constantly stuggling and no one is actually happy.
