In too deep -Depression and selfharm

One day to the other

People think that depression is sadness
People think depression is crying
People think that depression is dressing in black
But people are wrong
Depression is the 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
Days aren't really days
They 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 heaps into anything that can get you through the day
That's what depression is
Not sadness
Or tears
It's the overwhelming sense of numbness and desire for anything that can help you to make it from one day to the other
