I have often wondered this but he doesn't seem depressed at all.
I don't know how much you've looked into the symptoms of depression, but they can be quite different for men, and sometimes hard to recognize. I had no idea until I started reading up on it:
Quote:
Instead of acknowledging their feelings, asking for help, or seeking appropriate treatment, men may turn to alcohol or drugs when they are depressed, or become frustrated, discouraged, angry, irritable and, sometimes, violently abusive. Some men deal with depression by throwing themselves compulsively into their work, attempting to hide their depression from themselves, family, and friends; other men may respond to depression by engaging in reckless behavior, taking risks, and putting themselves in harm's way.
* Anger and frustration * Violent behavior * Losing weight without trying * Taking risks, such as reckless driving and extramarital sex * Loss of concentration * Isolation from family and friends * Avoiding pleasurable activities * Fatigue * Loss of interest in work, hobbies and sex * Alcohol or substance abuse * Misuse of prescription medication * Thoughts of suicide
In addition, men often aren't aware that physical symptoms, such as headaches, digestive disorders and chronic pain, can be symptoms of male depression.
