I dont think I can stress enough how serious depression is. People tell you, Oh, cheer up it can be worse, or Suck it up, youre being dramatic. Its not something that people can control. Its, more often than not, a chemical imbalance in the brain. It is actually an illness. Some days you wake up and youre fine, other days you wake up and you feel worthless and hopeless. And even if you try to convince yourself that everythings fine, your brain does not perceive it that way. You feel negative, you feel alone, you feel like a burden, you have no drive to move out of bed. Hell, you often wonder why youre even trying anymore. Trying to tell someone with depression to Stop the pity party, or to Grow up, doesnt remotely help. In fact, it makes them feel worse. Be considerate and patient with these people, because they have delicate minds. Please people, dont overlook depression. Its a very real thing. And I think it deserves some awareness.
