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're just annoying obstacles
needed to be faced. And how do you face them? Through
medicine, through drinking; through drugs, through cutting.
When you're depressed you grasp on to anything to help
you get through the day. That's what depression is. Not
sadness, not tears, it's the overwhelming sense of
numbness and desire of anything that can help you make it
from one day to the next.
