I’m afraid if my depression.
Depression is like a stranger following you. For a while you can sense that someone is behind you, but only after some time do you know he’s really there. Depression is sadness, but it’s more than that. It’s ignoring everyone’s texts and calls because you don’t think you’re worthy of anyone’s time. It’s laying in bed unable to get up, because your body feels like a deadweight. It’s going to sleep and thinking that it’ll be better if you don’t wake up. It’s praying for sunlight when the forecast predicts clouds and rain for the unforeseeable future.
Your eyes become an endless sheet of rainfall. Your lips speak only lies, telling everyone that you’re okay. Your shoulders sink, holding the weight of your loneliness around all day. Your muscles ache, and your feet can’t hold you up anymore. Your whole body becomes controlled by the monster inside of you.
So this is how I define depression.
It is defined in many ways.
But it never defines who I am.
Eerily hits home. It wasn't until I started going to therapy once every other week, and put my mental health first, that I've been able to tackle my depression when it rears its ugly head. Just know you aren't alone in those feelings!
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful piece!
I completely understand you. There’s weekends I do not leave my apartment at all. I close my blinds. Sleep. Watch movies. Order in food. Live through other people’s life’s by watching their Instagram stories- feeling sorry for myself :/
Hopefully one day we heal
I appreciate this a lot. For me depression is more like a heavy blanket of indifference over everything rather than sadness or not feeling good enough. Not leaving my apartment for days and blowing off plans because I can’t find the energy or motivation to do anything. Disappearing and not responding to anyone for extended periods of time because I can’t get myself to deal with communicating with people. It helps to actually say it though. One of my friends brought up how I’ve bailed on so many things and I ended up telling her I do that when I’m having one of my depression days. Turns out she has some similar feelings and days like that too. Not only did that make us closer and better understand each other, but just talking to each other openly has also made it easier for me now to actually get up out of bed and follow through on plans with her. Somehow knowing that she’d understand if I told her I can’t make it helps give me motivation to go anyway
