Or when joking but suddenly you see them notice it’s real instead of laughing…

I was half sharing half joking a bit of my morbid depression and sense of humor with a coworker one day. The next day she came up to me unprompted and said if I ever don’t show up without notice she’s she calling the police for a wellness check on me. I don’t share or joke with anyone at work anymore. I appreciate the sentiment from her but I could tell I upset her by opening up a little with her

I hope you have someone you can really talk to and share (if you want to share that is). I’ve been really depressed before and it would have been nice to talk eith someone but I didn’t have anyone close enough that I could trust with my deep, disturbing feelings at the time
