I don't have much to add. It is all very interesting.
I thought this little story might be interest.
When I was doing social work no one knew I had depression. I worked along side a woman who had a distinct limp, I think one leg was longer, not sure. Anyway I at lunch with one of the "clients" because she asked me to. This woman that limped said one day, after that, that she did not understand why "these people" would want to socialise with people who were not depressed. (They were high functioning, in my opinion being held back They probably functioned as well as I did.) I just looked at her rather astounded. I dearly wanted to ask her why whe felt the need to work, socialise, marry... people who did not have a profound limp! Of ourse I did not do it.
