Depression

I feel like there are too many depressed people out there. And I don't mean the people who try to attract attention and I know people like that personally but out of the very little respect I have for them, I will not voice their names. Anyways if the person behind this screen is battling depression I want to be the one to advise you.

So there are many reasons as to why people are depressed.
• abuse of drugs
• family struggles
• death
•bullying

I really hope none of you are going through this, but never EVER resort to self harm. Honestly, that will not alleviate the internal pain you are feeling. Killing yourself, and harming yourself is never something to do. You've seen the Instagram posts. They're cheesy, but true.   

Honestly I know you're going to be surprised when I tell you this, but you shouldn't tell people what you're going through. Only close friends and family whom you trust. Because that way you're attracting attention to yourself and people start to get the wrong idea, get uncomfortable and nervous and might drift away from you in terms of friendship or any social contact. But at the same time it's harder when you keep everything bottled up. Write out your feelings, listen to music, distract yourself. If it gets to the point where you are suicidal, or you even think about harming yourself or you just can't take it anymore. then you tell (if you haven't already) AN ADULT. People have posted pictures on Instagram of them cutting themselves, and I was stunned. Is this how people gain publicity? It was disgusting for me to see this person do this. They even put it as their profile picture. What. The. Fuck.

If you need song suggestions, my personal playlist:
• 21 guns by Greenday
• This is Gospel by Panic! At The Disco
• War by Former Vandal
• Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Greenday
• I Found by Amber Run
• Work Song by Hozier
•  Coffins by Misterwives

And honestly you've heard it all before but, its not worth it. It never is. You have a whole life ahead of you, you have a chance to discover yourself! You'll miss out on the chance to be walked down the aisle with a person who loves you, on the other side. To have children. Don't tell mw you want to miss out on that. Because out of all the Seven Deadly Sins there's an eighth one. Out of the Ten Commandments, there's an eleventh one. Suicide. (If you are Jewish or not Christian do not pay attention to that BUT YOU GET THE POINT. DONT KILL YOSELF) So before you think of doing something to yourself, think about what you'll be leaving behind. Think about the lives you will ruin.

Someone out there loves you. There's no room for haters, there's no room for depression. There's only room for confidence. That will make you keep your head up high. It will put a smile on your face. Even if it isn't real, you'll pull through. Don't.

Trust me I've been through depression too many times to know that what is waiting for you on the other side is worth living for. All you have to do is keep your chin up while you're walking through whatever is keeping you down. (My bio has a quote that is easier to understand)
