Depression

Depression is like a hole opening up beneath you. By the time you realize that it’s there, you can’t get out on your own. Two things could happen: Either someone hears your calls for help and saves you or it gets to a point where you’ve fallen to the bottom, too deep for anything to help you. If it gets to that point, you will most likely start to cope in unhealthy ways such as self-harm, drinking alcohol, or consuming drugs. Depression is not something that you can escape on your own; you don’t just wake up one day and discover it’s gone. People tell you to snap out of it, but you honestly can’t. The worst part is that you don’t know why you started to feel this way or if it’ll get better. You don’t know how to escape the feeling. A lot of times, teenagers will claim that they’re depressed for attention. That isn’t okay. You can typically tell when someone’s just seeking attention instead of being actually depressed. If you’re actually depressed, you don’t tell the entire world. You actually have to really trust someone to even suggest that you might have depression and you have your walls built up so high that when you find the one person who can make them come crashing down, you’ll try to push them away. If someone’s just looking for attention, they’ll tell the entire world all about how “depressed” they are. The only thing that can save someone once they are depressed is a person to stick with them every step of the way on the long road to happiness.
A poem I wrote about depression called The Darkness Inside:

The sadness that hides deep inside is my enemy.
All the shadows take over every happy memory.
My soul is bruised and battered,
And whatever I do, it doesn't seem to matter.

It controls every second, every thought, and every breath I take.
I can’t love because I don’t want my heart to break.
Fighting against my demons in a never ending battle,
The walls I’ve put up are starting to rattle.

Sadness like ink
I fall and I sink
Into the abyss of my thoughts.
I’m broken and lost,
And the light starts to flicker
When I look at old pictures
Of what it was like
Before midnight striked.

Believing is hard when your faith is weak.
I hope someday I’ll find the happiness I seek.
Someday I’ll wake up and I’ll remember I tried,
But I’ll realize I can’t fight the darkness inside.

Depression

something you hide, something that no one wants to know, you will feel like a burden when someone hates you for telling. It is sadness but except lasts longer and consists of suicidal thoughts.
Example of depression:

You are walking down the street on a snowy sunset, the ice glazes the traffic lights, there are not a lot of sounds, cars driving by occasionally, and everyone passing by is a stranger. You have heavily devoted half your life to please others and to put smiles on others faces but you have been dealing with this for years. You are always isolated yourself from others as it will burden them, and enjoying life is hard especially for you. No one liked you because you were too sad or moody. You like to scream while in bed and listen to sad music while thinking of life in bed. During the day, you stay in your room and just do your homework. When you are alone, your beast inside comes to tear you up and rip you into pieces while others are simply watching not seeing anything happening. Crying is very easy because you did it thousands of times but it still hurts more every time. You have constant suicidal thoughts and regrets. You continue walking because you blanked out while thinking of problems. All you think about is how to end your life
