The horrible Stigma of Depression
I am so sick of people thinking depression is a character flaw, a weakness, something you can "snap out of"... It's a debilitating disease! It's a horrific illness that's like a cancer of the soul, robbing you of humanity and personality, of joy, hope and just about everything else...
You CAN'T snap out of it, cause it's not a bad mood that can be lifted by a shopping trip or a funny movie, it's a horrible change in the structure of the brain that is leaving you desperate, clutching at straws, willing to do ANYTHING just to get better...
I am sick of the ignorance... only those who have been there know what a horror it TRULLY is. Evidence below, to those who still have their doubts.
