Okay so, I've been asked to cover depression
I suffer from depression, and most of the question was what is it like. I'll tell you. Depression is like a roller coaster. There will be days where you're just kinda in a bad mood and then there's days where you're fine. There's also days where you just can't get out of bed and all you do is cry. Then there's the physical manifestations like our sleep pattern or our room being messy. I for one when I'm at the lowest point my room gets to where you can't see the floor and im up all night then make up for the missed sleep during the day. Our eating habits change, sometimes we'll have a decent appetite and sometimes we won't have the will to eat. I know I've gone days without eating and then afterwards I'll binge eat and that normally ends in me purging but I'll cover that in another chapter. Then there's the rude comments I get. The one that hurts the most has to be "we all get depressed sometimes, just get over it". You wouldn't believe how much that hurts. I mean we're already struggling. That's like telling someone that's been shot to stop bleeding. Or telling a fish to breathe air. I mean how stupid can you be. If you're struggling with depression you can't just get over it, It's a mental illness. Oh oh this one is good, "you're just using your depression as an excuse". I mean bitch please if you're having a bad day with depression and just can't bring yourself to do anything then you can't. It's not an excuse it's an actually the amount that person can do.
Anyways before I rage to much that's my input on the topic
