Depression. One does not simply know depression. Depression becomes you. It takes you over, controls your moods, your eating habits. One might say depression is sadness. Sadness is to feel sad. (Sad) Depression is much more then sadness. It’s pain,torment,ups and downs .. and sadness can’t leave that out.. ones self worth is at a all time low. All we need is a loved one to say hey I love you.. or acknowledge there is a problem.
Crying or moping around is not a cop out. It takes more strength to just get up when you’re depressed then you’ll ever know if you never had depression.. instead of saying hey what’s wrong. Say hey is there anything I can do.. 9 times out of 10 there won’t be anything you can do. But the thought never goes unnoticed.
DEPRESSION in a nutshell. No energy No appetite No will to go on. Thoughts of suicide Feelings of worthlessness Wanting to sleep Nightmares while you are sleeping. Some cut Some write Some even end their lives..
If you know someone who is fighting depression. Or someone who self harms Don’t be scared to say hey do you need my help? Can I do something to make things easier for you?
One simple act of kindness can stop someone from taking their lives.. Please don’t battle this awful disease alone. Ask for help.
Never battle depression alone. My greatest achievement battling depression was asking for help..
