According to the article written by William F. Morris, “This is What Depression Feels Like” / thecrimson.com It talks about how depression is just that thing or voice in your head telling you to just not move and feel sad all the time. In the article it says, “What is the point? You try to get out of bed in the morning, but you just can’t escape its almost magnetic hold over you. So you sleep. And you sleep. And you sleep. Sleep becomes your drug of choice, and you abuse it constantly. Your old hobbies and passions no longer have the same appeal.” Try to find joy in your life and live as if there is nothing to live for, because there is. Experiencing depression and watching someone experience it are totally different. You can’t go as if you have lived through it, when really you just want to be included. Also you need to know that not having depression is a good thing, it’s not something you should want for yourself. If you are experiencing depression you are in the middle of the chaos, the eye of the storm, losing more of yourself and others in a day than the average person loses in almost a year.. Although if you are watching someone go through depression it can feel surreal, because you see someone lose not only the people around them but themselves. So if you see someone looking down and you feel as though they are sad or look alone in this, help them. You can help them by reaching out to them even if you don’t know them, or have them talk to an adult about it. And you can always suggest them to call 988-988, which is a suicide and depression hotline, access 24 hours a day, everyday.
