“I know what its like to want to die. How it hurts to smile. How you try to fit in, but you can’t. How you hurt yourself on the outside, to try to kill the thing on the inside.”

What’s Hard About Depression

1. You feel as if you’re judged - and that you’re rarely understood.

2. You know that others love you – but you didn’t feel like they care.

3. You want to feel you’re wanted – but you feel you’re in the way.

4. You want to just be normal but you’re shrouded by despair.

5. You wish you could be happy – but you can’t stop feeling bad.

6. You want to make the effort – but you don’t have the energy.

7. You feel that things are hopeless - as they never seem to change.

8. You’ve heard that life gets better – but it’s so hard to get there!
