Can people still tell you have anxiety/depression issues even on meds?

Can you answer Juno’s question about Depression?:

Can people still tell you have anxiety/depression issues even on meds?
For example, I take Wellbutrin and Cymbalta every morning for my ADD/OCD and depression, but even though I’ve felt more balanced, I worry that women (who are SUPPOSED) to pick up on every little thing are going to say “Well, he’s totally medicated.”

Do people know if someone’s on medicine or not for their nerves or is it just me?

Will I be labeled or is this all in my head?

    Depression Feedback: No offense to anyone:
    If you don’t have any mental disabilites (like learning diabilities) than people probably won’t tell about you taking medicine for those things.

    Depression Feedback: Don’t worry. I take meds and no one can tell or has asked me. It is just like taking blood pressure meds or anything else. No one knows unless you tell them, so do not worry. :)
