I'm not sure how I respond when I'm not depressed; somehow, when I'm not, it's very easy to analyze my behavior when I am as being indicative of that. I think maybe I just shrug it off a lot easier.


The out-of-place feeling definitely gets worse in larger settings. Two or three other people is usually fine, but any more than that and it starts coming on stronger. If I'm continuously involved in a conversation then it's usually not very noticeable, but that's not usually the case, since a) I often have difficulty getting a word in edgewise in group conversations and b) because of this, I tend to just sit there quietly, since there's nothing I can do about it.
