The worst part about depression is that people that don’t have it, They just don’t get it. They explain it as if it a cry for help, But its really something they HAVE to deal with every miserable day.
Yes you are right. People who don’t have depression > most of the time they cant relate or understand it. Sometimes depression is so heavy on people I can see it on them. Literally see it on them. Like a heaviness that is overcoming them…and I myself know what that is like.
Yaeh, some can hide it well, which is why those types that go on to suicide come as a big shock to those who knew them. Then there are those like me who you mention, PhantomCitizen. I guess I wear my heart on my sleeve no matter what i’m feeling.
It’s like I have the plague in some peoples eyes and to others i’m nothing more than an attention whore…but the ones who truly understand are people who’ve sampled it first hand. Thats rather sad because there are many things i’m not cursed with which others are yet i can imagine what it must be like for them. Isn’t that where empathy and compassion come into play?
