Indeed there are wounds that never show outside the body that are deeper and more hurtful than anything that bleeds. Such suffering causes a person to kill himself out of hopelessness because the real fear in depression isn’t about dying, but the thought of living with yourself forever, fighting your own demon. Depression is not the same as sadness, it’s a lot more than that! It’s about time for us to be aware and be more sensitive. Let us be more careful with our words and actions because we do not know what other people are actually going through.
And please, if you are this person, know that YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
To all my family and friends, I am always here if you need someone to talk to. ?

I have gone to that stage of being depressed. I just kneel down and pray to the Lord.

Yes. A lot of times people think that depression is just overreacting.

@cheeeeeball they only care about physical stuff. Mental illness is a real thing.

I went through depression for a year, that time I was living with my mum and sister but none of them knew what I was going through. But I thank my friends who stood by me n helped me overcome the depression. And the time they sacrificed to join me for my counseling sessions n for keeping it a secret from my family as they would have freaked out.
It wasn’t the easiest paths to walk, but am happy someone walked the path with me.

I agree with you, depression is not like a sadness but it actually lead to sadness and disappointment.
