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 being numb. Being numb to emotions, being numb to lies. You wake up in the morning and go back to bed again. Days aren't really days; they are just annoying obstacles that needed to be faced. And how do you face them? Through medication, through drinking, through smoking, through drugs, through cutting. When you're depressed, you grasp onto anything that can get you through the day. Thats what depression is, not being sad or having tears, it's the overwhelming sense of numbness and the desire for anything that can help you make it from one day to the next.
