So my depression has made me home bound, and this mean that I haven't been going to school, this has caused to miss major exams, the consequence of doing so is that I will have to redo the whole year. The school just called and said I need to come back, i knew this was going to happen at some point but it just happened. I want to know how to deal with other people asking questions like; Where were you during this really important exam, did you bunk, did you freak out? Why have you not been coming into school even after the exams? Why do you look so sad?
Various rude comments and question. I don't want everyone to know I'm depressed.

Just answer "Family problems. I really don't feel like getting into it, but thank you for caring." Once you say that, they won't ask again. My best friend is going through the same situation. I really hope you feel better, and if you need to talk, I'm here.

Just tell them you had a medical issue that caused you to miss out. It sucks to have to explain it. I failed some college semesters because of my depression, but I managed to use my family as an excuse and just told friends I was needed more at home than school, and my family's well being was more important than my education. And that's not a lie. You are part of your family, and if you are unwell, your family is as well. I do hope you find the strength to face everything. And know you have so much support from people close to you, and those of us on here as well.

Laugh it off
Act silly
It's easier to say 'in fine' than to explain
So in stead of just saying, start acting
It will keep people away from the thought of needing to check on you
But trust me, it's actually a very very bad decision to act, if you went too far, you would drown in your own play

I really want to thank you all for your advise, I'm going to school tomorrow with a lot more confidence, then before. You have all supported me immensely, thank you all.
