Pushing people away might cause depression as much as it could be a symptom of depression. Pushing people away could be a symptom of low self image, a self protection defense mechanism, of an attempt to become more autonomous from the influence of others.

I think depressed people push others away because they don't view themselves as worthy. they think that if they open up the'll be "weird" or a burden. The best thing you can do if this is going on is show them your interested in them and want to understand what there going through. ask them questions, smile and be calm and sympathetic. depressed people are sensitive so if your disingenuous thell pick up on it. learning to care about people is the best thing you can do to help depressed people.

There are so many reasons, and everyone is different. That said it's common to feel misunderstood and completely alone when depressed regardless of others attempts to prove otherwise. Something that helps is being completely consistent in your offers of support and comfort, not just a one time thing. Another thing is they may not want to talk about their depression, so if that's something people keep talking about when they are around it could do more damage than good. It's important to involve them in topics they are interested in, such as music, hobbies and humor. Something to note is that people dealing with depressed ones often fear rejection as well, and may not put themselves out there enough to make a difference. Telling and showing someone who is depressed exactly how much they mean to you may be hard because of that fear, but it may be the best thing for them as well.

Depressed people tend to pus love ones away because they prefer to be alone. Some don't want to be irritated by them and others feel like they're being judged by them. For depressed people an aea to themselves is considered a safe place regardless if they are suffering or not.

People who are depressed tend to push loved ones away because they feel that they are not "good enough", they might have bad thoughts about themselves like "they don't like me" or "I don't want to bother him/her with my problems". They might be afraid of what other people think of them, afraid of being judged. This is just a tiny part of the issue, but this is my personal experience of it.
