Welcome to this forum! Firstly, who diagnosed you? Depression is an illness just invisible. Mental health is as important as physical health. Days that we are physically ill we cant function and more so when feeling unwell mentally. Many people disregard psychiatric illnesses and suffer in silence. It’s good that you’re seeking help. Depression is treated with medicine and counselling.
