People think they know what DEPRESSION is ... because they've been through a hard time .. like losing a job .. or losing someone they love .. or even being through a divorce ..
..
I do not agree ..
..
All the mentioned above experiences carry with them FEELINGS ..
Depression .. on the other hand .. is FLAT & HOLLOW ..
People cannot abide being around you when you're depressed .. they just can't ..
They might think they ought to .. they might even try to .. but they will eventually realize how unbelievably TEDIOUS you are ..
..
You're IRRITABLE .. PARANOID .. LIFELESS .. HUMORLESS .. CRITICAL .. DEMANDING .. & OVERSENSITIVE ..
..
You're FRIGHTENED & FRIGHTENING in the same time .. you're not at all like yourself .. & only GOD knows if you will ever be yourself again ..
