I'd rather cut myself and focus on the blood that's running down my arm, than deal with the mess that is inside of my head.

People think depression is sadness. People think depression is crying. People are wrong. Depression is the constant feeling of being numb. Being numb to emotions, being numb to lie. You wake up in the morning just to go back to bed again. Days aren't really days. They are just an obstacle to get through. How do you face them? Through medication, through drinking, through drugs, though cutting. When you are depressed you grip on anything that can get you through the day. That's what depression is.

People think depression is sadness. People think depression is crying. People think depression is dressing in black. But people are wrong. Depression is the constant feeling of being numb. Being numb to emotions, being numb to lie. You wake up in the morning just to go back to bed again. Days aren’t really days; they are just annoying obstacles that need to be faced. And how do you face them? Through medication, through drinking, through smoking, through drugs, through cutting. When you’re depressed, you grasp on to anything that can get through the day. That’s what depression is, not sadness or tears, it’s the overwhelming sense of numbness and the desire for anything that can help you make it from one day to the next.

Having depression is like being trapped in a really bad thunderstorm. You don’t know when it’s going to hit, you never know how long it’s going to last, and when it finally passes, you’re left to survey the damages and pick up the pieces.

Show me your scars,"he said.
"But...Why?"She asked quizzically.
"I want to see how many times you needed me and i wasn't there,"he whispered, a tear rolling down his cheek.

Saying you're tired when you're actually sad.

I don’t get it how people can say that those who have depression or who struggle with anxiety are just “looking for attention” and it’s “not a big deal” and you just have to “get over it”.
What the fuck do you know?? You haven’t felt it, you don’t know what it’s like. You don’t know how scary it is. How you have to stay strong and fight to not have a breakdown at public. How you have to smile to hide your tears and pretend that everything is okay.
Depression is not funny, anxiety is not a joke. So don’t judge, if you don’t know the story!!
