⚠️ severe depression ⚠️
It's not just being sad
It's not something we can just fix
We can't just hope it goes away
It's so much more than that
It's not wanting to get out of bed in the morning
It's not eating properly because eating takes too much effort
It's watching your grades slip because you don't have the motivation to do the work
It's not wanting to get dressed in the morning
It's thinking about killing yourself because you feel worthless
Because you feel useless, unneeded, and unwanted
Because you feel like a waste of space
Because you feel like a waste of oxygen, money, and time
It's going from feeling every emotion
To feeling nothing in the blink of an eye
It's crying yourself to sleep because all you feel is hurt
Depression may not be physical
You may not be able to see it
But that doesn't mean we are faking it
You are strong and you are brave. Never forget that ❤️
