People think depression is sadness.
People think depression is crying.
People think depression is dressing in black.
But people are wrong.
Depression is a constant feeling of being numb.
Being numb to emotions, being numb to lie.
You wake up in the morning just to go back to bed again.
Days aren't really days; they are annoying obstacles that need to be faced.
And how do you face them?
Through medication.
Through drinking.
Through smoking.
Through drugs.
Through cutting.
Sleeping all day.
When you're depressed, you grasp onto anything that can get you through your day.
That's what depression is, not sadness or tears, it's an overwhelming sense of numbness and desire for anything that can help you make it from day one to the next.
