yes. it's also a cultural difference. just watch any Colin Firth interview for example. he will characterize himself as just a jobbing actor who got lucky or something to that effect. self-effacing modesty and expecting others to recognize your value is very typical in a lot of european cultures. here in the US, it's almost like people have to tour their own horn for others to recognize them.

nothing to do with depression.
