Symptoms of depression include feelings of sadness, tearfulness, emptiness or hopelessness, loss of interest or pleasure in most or all normal activities, sleep disturbances, including insomnia or sleeping too much, tiredness and lack of energy, so even small tasks take extra effort, reduced appetite and weight loss or increased cravings for food and weight gain, anxiety, agitation or restlessness, slowed thinking, speaking or body movements, feelings of worthlessness or guilt, fixating on past failures or self-blame, trouble thinking, concentrating, making decisions and remembering things, frequent or recurrent thoughts of death, suicidal thoughts, suicide attempts or suicide, and unexplained physical problems, such as back pain or headaches. Depression is treatable with medication, psychotherapy or both.

I'm not in the mood, I have depression and I feel like killing myself.

Depression

Depression is a serious thing that not a lot of people realize. Really Serious Thing

It causes you to lose all interest in anything you do. You reject eating, don’t talk to anyone, stick to yourself, hide away, Lots Of Crying, Sitting In Complete Darkness, Never Happy.

It can even lead to things like, Self Harm, Anxiety, Insecurities, Being an Introvert, Even worse Suicide.

It can be cause by: Break-Ups, Bullying, Neglect, and many other things.

Now if your friend is depressed and they don’t want to get professional help, then you become the pro (and still tell a professional about them) Help them, Be The Person They Need, Be Their Happiness.

If you aren’t sure look for these signs: Head Down, Leg Bouncing A Lot, Looking Around A Lot, Not Being Active, Quiet, Hood Up, Not Happy As Much, and many other signs to tell if someone is depressed.

Just Don’t Let Them Try And End Their Life.

Depression is scary and leads you to do things that scare other people. I’ve done my fair share of things while I was depressed. As much as I hoped it would go away it didn’t. The more I did the worse it got. It got so bad that I tried to end my life, twice. I started to push so many people away. I stopped opening up to people like: My Dad, Mom, Best Friend, Girlfriend, Therapist, EVERYONE. I eventually told a buddy about the attempts I had failed, and they went and told everyone which then lead to people including me using it as a joke. It Is Not A Joke and Every Time I Joke About It Hurts So Fucking Much. I don’t say anything about it hurting because people have been joking about it for so incredibly long. It caused me to lose my emotions and feelings so I just walked through school hood up, blasting music, hoping I could just disappear, but I ended up in a relationship with a very special person to me that made me come to the realization that I’m loved and needed in life. At that point I changed my ways and began trying to live life like there’s a meaning to it. All tho that relationship just ended for now I’m still living life with a meaning behind it. Not For Me, but for Her, For Nathan, For Jo, For My Dad, For My Mom, For Kale, For Bri, For All the people that I’ve helped and those who helped me. I am still depressed, but I’m turning my life around. I’m participating in more, supporting people more, and being more respectful.
