Can people who seem happy and extremely active also be depressed? If you have hidden or smiling depression, the answer is yes.
Unlike a normal depression, in smiling depression, the person can work full-time, fulfil responsibilities, play sports, and lead an active life. They seem happy and active on the outside while suffering on the inside.
So, what are the symptoms? Could you or someone around you suffer from smiling depression?
