I Would have to describe My Depression as ALCOHOL. It could be 12:00 pm or 5:00 pm and sometimes even as late as 11:00 but when I stress out or feel like my life has no purpose (which sadly said happens more so than ya think) I want to drink. I feel like it gets rid of the pity feelings. I go numb. I can go from crying hysterically to not caring either way. That is how I would describe depression, not caring. And there are more days that I

would consider myself depressed than days that are normal. I have been to therapist, counselors, vacations, jobs, concerts, you name it and I have tried it. NOTHING HAS HELPED!!! I still can't find Gods purpose. My Life Sucks. I can put on a fake smile, which I am really good at, but if you really knew what I was thinking you would be shocked!!! I promise you that!

Depression can and will kill you. I am honestly saying someday's I wish it would kill me. Whoever has said or made the comment that suicide is for the weak, has never tried or considered it. It is a lot easier to think suicidal thoughts than it is to go through it. Now I am not commending people who have went through it and committed suicide I am just saying its not as easy as you think. I cannot tell you how many times I have thought about it. And if it was so easy and if it was for the weak then why I have not gone through with it yet?? It takes a strong person who believes fully what they believe in to actually do it. Suicide is a dirty, nas

ty thing. I am not perfect by no means, but I have thought about it. I have been weak, and still couldn't do it.

Depression is dirty, its nasty. Leads you no where and leaves you with nothing. And dont think you can pick out the depressed people. Be more warey of the ones that look like they have it together, because there isnt a day that goes by that I don't think about it. Be careful of what you say and who you say it to!! Always. You just never know!!

But I can say one thing - - If I have made it this far, there is hope, and you can do it too!!! Because I, like everyone else in this world starts off as a single rose above the deadly thorns and have blossomed into a bouquet of multiple beautiful roses. I have been through the black roses to get to the LIVELY ones!!!
