Depression is something rarely talked about openly. I'd like to bring it a little bit more to the surface and help promote a dialog. Here is an intimate and honest reflection of what living with depression has been like for me. Please keep in mind that these are just 14 main aspects of many more miniscule details. These are the big ones.
Living with depression...
Means having mental illness manifest itself into many different physical ailments.
Always having to rely on other people for help, and therefore never feeling independent.
Alienating your friends.
Confusing people by spending large chunks of time with them, followed by prolonged absence.
Making a mess of your life.
Feeling like you want new connections, but being unable to sustain them.
Drowning in the sea of sadness.
Struggling to maintain a healthy weight.
Not being able to be the best parent that you can be.
Having poor judgment.
Low energy level preventing you from from getting things done.
Being unable to go outside even in nice weather.
Falling behind on your bills.
Not having a normal life.
