How do you keep your condition/health confidential when people start asking why you're not at work?

I think this is a particularly poignant issue for males because of the stigma that a male is "supposed to work."

Just say that your doctor wants you off of work for while for some health or medical issues. when they ask "what's wrong?" just say " Nothing , i really don't want to talk about it , but will be okay." That normally keeps them quiet and keeps the issue private. Don't bring up work or work related stuff if you want to keep the fact that you are home a secret but if it comes out just be discreet. If they are truely your friends they will respect your privacy.

I am off work this week due to depression.

I have found, however, that I am related to Abraham Lincoln through my father's mother. He fought depression, and I fight depression. I'm sure that there were times when he took off, just to be alone and overcome those feelings of helplessness, just as I do when life gets to be too much to handle.

you are never required to tell others something you feel uncomfortable about.

you might have to tell your employer, however, and when you do, make sure it is a person in an administrative capacity... or your human resources manager... they must keep your personal information confidential.

the truth is, people are concerned, but really it's none of their business what is wrong with you... if you feel you have to, you can just tell them you are under a doctor's care.. or whatever you are comfortable with..
