Depression

"You'll get over it."

"People have it worse."

"Just be happy!"

"You're just being lazy."

 

No.

Depression is when

you feel like dying because

life just isn't worth living anymore.

 

Depression is like

constantly thinking

there's something wrong with you

just because other people say so.

 

Depression is when

you want to sleep forever

instead of waking up

into a nightmare.

 

Depression, in all its doom,

is when you love someone

so much

that you start wondering

 

when

 

they'll

 

leave.
