What is depression? It's not just sadness or an absence of gladness or absolute madness. It's a disease that takes everything out of you but people don't see it that way. On the outside you seem calm but on the inside your dying. Sadness comes to everybody even if there's no reason to be, it doesn't care about who you are and doesn't care when you plea. It's really sad how one day I'll seem to have everything going right then the next day I'll lose everything so fast.
What is depression like? It's like drowning. Except you can see everyone around you breathing. Depression is a war. A battle against yourself. Every thought is a bullet. Every movement is a punch. And every word is a stab in the heart. But then, the bleeding will stop, the wounds will heal, the scars will form and all of your problems will still not be fixed.
Depression is a war. You either win or you die trying. And I'm afraid to say I'm losing.
