As a depression/anxiety sufferer, I've become very wary of truthfully replying to "are you ok?" - there are work situations where this can be weaponized against me.

It may seem like an innocent question, but it can be asked in a way that is threatening. I understand why people are now saying to not bring your entire authentic self to work.

This probably sounds ridiculous to non-depressed people, but unfortunately, this is a reality I have (and others) have to confront and live with.
