Depressiveepisode Stories

FOR #BRAVETOGETHER CONTEST Depression can consume you from the inside out. It makes you feel things you wish you wouldn't, makes you snap at the little things, and is completely terrible. The smiles you fake are weak, you're always tired, and you're just done with everything. Everything that made you happy just bores you now. Good days end with bad nights. You think everything is wrong with you and you're done with everything else. There are so many things that can be said, but a limit to which they can be said in.

Random thoughts while having an episode that I decided to write down.

I'm gonna be writing events from my ocs' lives in here

My raw, candid - sometimes intricate - thoughts regarding my depression. Treat each entry as a journal entry. I write these when my feelings are too big for my body, and I'd like to let you into my mind for a while. I started this because writing is therapeutic for me, and the most productive thing I could do when life seems pointless. This is not to promote depression, but rather to let people know they are not alone in their feelings. Sometimes reading something you can relate to can be better than talking to someone who doesn't get it. If you are considering suicide or harming yourself, please speak to someone. Remember you are here for a reason, even if you can't quite figure it out right now. Stay strong. ❤️
