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 numb. Being numb to emotions, being numb to lies. You wake up in the morning just to go back to bed again. Days are just annoying obstacles that need to be faced. And how do you face them? Through medication, through drinking, through smoking, through drugs through cutting. When your 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 od numbness and the desire for anything that can help you make it from one day to the next..

I drown myself in writing and reading and scrolling to distract from my personal hell

living with this..is...unbearable at times but I find ways to get through :)
