Hi, friend. If you are in the US, you might want to look at the requirements of the [Americans with Disabilities Act][0]. They specifically do cover mental impairments such as depression. [It can be hard to get needed accommodations from employers, though.][1]
This is one of the things that really bothers me, dealing with mental health issues. Even people that intellectually understand that mental health issues are as real as physical health issues, will, when it comes down to it, expect you to suck it up and behave as if you did not have those issues. It is endlessly frustrating.
