Hey,
I get this too but its not so much jokes, more annoyance.
Have you tried to explain to them that you can't help it? I know it's not an easy thing to do tho and tbh depending on the person/people you are talking to, they still might not understand. Depression is such a hard illness to understand unless you've been there.
Do you think you could ask them to just stop making jokes because it's upsetting you?
Sorry I couldn't offer any more advice. I hope you can come up with something that helps.
((Big Hugs))
Happiness is like a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you. ~Nathaniel Hawthorne
