Depression

The label that you get slapped with like you're constantly sad all the time, that you're broken and you need to be fixed, that everyone tries to "help" you with their "professional therapy" and hold sessions where you have to talk about your damn feelings.

The condition that can so easily mark you out from other happy, normal people in life.

The magic word that can instantly provide all your excuses in the 21st century.

The term that idiotic kids don't understand and keep misusing, just like so many other words that come into their lives that they can't grasp.

Something that even I don't understand at times.

I'm so tired of this word.

"Why do you always look like you're depressed?"
"Are you an emo?"
"Why do you always look so tired all the time?"

I am.

Is this what you call depression?

Depression

Depression feels like your drowning, while everyone else around is breathing. Depression is like a drug. It's so easy to get trapped into this "drug" it's hard to stop. But you can get through it. Depression is not a sign of weakness it's someone who has been to strong for to long. Depression makes everything u see black. No color. You're laughs and smiles are always fake and forced, and your breaks into a million pieces.

Depression; something we all don't deserve

Having depression is like being colorblind in a world of people telling you how colorfull their life is.

Person 1: I am depressed because of you so please leave

Person 2: Fuc you
Person 2: Bye
Person 1: Okay, bye
Depression is awful

Down, or sad, most times, and sometimes it is hard to be happy again.

When you are sad, you might be depressed.

My wife's depression is really interfering with our marriage, I just want to rip out the depression from inside of her, shake it and scream "LEAVE HER ALONE!"

Depression

Depression is a word commonly associated with emotions that encourage it. Commonly, depression is used to describe the aftermath or late symptom of something, like death in the family. For some reason, depression induces more of what the depression came from in the first place. In example, if someone developed depression from guilt, chances are depression will make them feel more guilty than they were before.

Assume that you got someone fired from a job they really needed. At first, you'd just feel guilty. Over time it may heal up, but for some reason, at some point or another something will rear the guilt back up. Only the guilt will have gained enough strength to induce depression as a resulting symptom to guilt.

Depressed

An terrible mental illness. Sadly it's also used in an normal way, like: I'm depressed we have history now', used by many girls at my school. They aren't depressed, they are just annoying and hurtful to people who have REALLY suffered depression. If you're depressed, you aren't that because of a lesson you have twice in a week, it's way and way more complicated. When you are using lines like 'I have a depression now because I couldn't sleep a long time', well, you won't remember that when you're 40. If you're really depressed, then the doctors can even SEE it under a narcose or something (when you're depressed you have a missing part of your brain and you'll always miss that part. It's just.... Gone.).

Lesson: Never. Never ever ever use a mental illness like depression to describe your feeling.

Some lines from my classmates:

Saying:

'I'm depressed we have history now'
'I have a depression-day, I have to wait one hour for the bus'

Thinking:

Booh it's so bad.

Real depressed people:

Talking:

'I don't wanna talk about whatever. Leave me alone.'

Thinking:

Just let me alone. I feel like exploding and empty the same time, let me be...

I'm sorry if you find these examples horrible, but I can't imagine how those girls think and what depressed people think.
