you dont have to tell people that you are depressed if you dont want to but if you truly trust them then you can tell them if you want to

You only need to tell people you are depressed if you think that you do. There is no rule that says you have to share that information with everyone. However, sharing with those closest to you may make it easier as they will be able to support you.

Yes, but you need to be very cautious. You need to vent out your state of mind to a compassionate person, not any other. Because, the wrong people can make your situation worse. There are loads of empathetic listeners here on 7 cups of tea.

Sometimes, talking to other people helps you. It can actually help them also. You need to be open about your feelings in ways that only you know.

I think if you are in a chat like this if the person you are talking to is depressed it may be helpful to disclose that information so they do not think they are in it alone.

Yes! You need to tell people you are depressed because if you are not telling it you are going to explode of emotions. You are going to keep that for yourself and start be even more depressed. Everytime when you feel something on your heart you need to say and and solve it

You do not need to tell anyone. But you should get professional help and have one person or friend you can talk to.
