Depression...

Hmmmm just thoughts..

I'm sitting here thinking about mortality.  Thinking about how I'm not scared of death,  I'm would be sad and upset at all the things I didn't do...but not scared.  I would be scared of what is left behind for everyone.

 Depression does that to you... not directly though.   People think depression is selfish,  but are they the selfish ones themselves? They think people who commit  suicide are not thinking about others.   But yet they themselves aren't thinking about how the depressed person truly feels, they just project what they think that person is feeling.  In fact when a depressed person thinks about suicide,  they are thinking of others.   They are thinking about how they are better off without them.   And how worthless they think they are too the others.

Depression comes in and destroys your soul.  It eats little part of it and scatters it all around.  Then it just looms, watching and criticizing every little thing you do.   Then you finally decide to try to put your soul back together asks find the task too difficult to do, all the meanwhile depression is just stating at you and criticizing you.   Some people are able to put the soul back together, but it won't ever be 100% fixed.  And you have to keep working on it daily.  And sometimes the depression comes back and breaks it again.  So then they have to come and try to muster the energy to rebuild.

People with mental illnesses are so strong.  They are fighting a war everyday, not knowing if they will win or not.  People who kill themselves are cowards and they aren't weak... they just want the torture to finally end.....
