It was written well, there were things I'd change but they aren't major.
Seriously though, you really nailed it in the author notes. People don't think you would hide something from them, let alone hide something like depression, suicidal thoughts and actions, etc. We ignore people's problems unless it benefits us to know about them or its perceived you are on the fine line of committing suicide or not. Unless you're dying nobody cares is all I've seen, that alone is depressing.
I might have said too much, so recap:
Good job on the writing and you nailed what people really ought to do in the author notes. Keep up the writing, and I hope to see more soon.
