My husband and I closed on our first house yesterday but I am very depressed right now. my mom passed away last week and i've been feeling very isolated. I guess i just didnt find it all that exciting. it was just doing a lot of paperwork and frankly i feel more overwhelmed than excited. the house needs work. and my job is very busy right now. 

well the realtor made a point to ask why i wasnt "excited and smiling." i resent that especially when a man tells me to smile. he doesnt know what's going on in my life.  and it's just a house. we have a huge mortgage. it's not like we WON a house for free. i've moved between so many apartments during my life this is no different to me, only it's a bigger burden

anyways, maybe if i didnt have major depression i'd smile more. but i just wasnt in the mood. it's so rude to tell someone to smile. it was a lot of paperwork to fill out and a lot of legal documents. that's not exciting to me. 

can anyone relate? anyone else get annoyed when people are like oh why dont you smile? oh show some enthusiasm.  ever hear of the fact that maybe people have other things going on in their life that they aren't in the mood?
