It's the feeling that you aren't just sad about one thing. You are sad about everything. Little things. Big things. Everything makes you upset. You end up crying, And don't really know why. You can't go to school. You can't pursue a job. Not because you are lazy. Not because you're worthless Simply the fact that You can't handle the stress, Or you're scared of failing. It makes you scared to do anything, Really. You just stay cooped up in your room. You sleep. You eat, on a good day. You take your meds. And you just sit. You lose your social life. You lose your love. You lose your passions. You start to believe dreams are completely unattainable. You eventually lose your feelings. It just makes you feel like You're going insane. It's literally the most painful thing in the world to experince. You want to think better. Act better. Be better. The horrible part is, You know how to fix it all. But no one seems to be able to help. It's really simple things That would make you happy. It really is. But it's like those things are miles away. Then the vicious cycle begins again.

Depression.
It's the feeling that you aren't just sad about one thing. You are sad about everything. Little things. Big things. Everything makes you upset. You end up crying, And don't really know why. You can't go to school. You can't pursue a job. Not because you are lazy. Not because you're worthless Simply the fact that You can't handle the stress, Or you're scared of failing. It makes you scared to do anything, Really. You just stay cooped up in your room. You sleep. You eat, on a good day. You take your meds. And you just sit. You lose your social life. You lose your love. You lose your passions. You start to believe dreams are completely unattainable. You eventually lose your feelings. It just makes you feel like You're going insane. It's literally the most painful thing in the world to experince. You want to think better. Act better. Be better. The horrible part is, You know how to fix it all.
