People think depression is sadness. People think depression is crying. People think depression is dressing in black. But people are wrong. Depression is the constant feeling of being numb. Being numb to emotions. You wake up in the morning just to go back to bed again. Days aren't really days, they are just annoying obstacles that need to be faced. And how do you face them? Through medication, through sleeping, through cutting. When you're depressed you grasp onto anything that can get you through the day. That's what depression is, not sadness or tears, its the overwhelming sense of numbness and the desire for anything that can help you make form one day to next.
