It is not just a matter of feeling sad; discover an honest view of the mental, emotional and physical toll of clinical depression.
Mental Illness Doesn't Need to be Fought Alone
Depression hits different these days. I used to not clean my room and not leave for months on end. Now, it is more robotic. I didn't wash my hair for almost 2 weeks, but I showered every day. I don't eat, but I have been drinking water and protein shakes. I still do the things that make me feel good, I just do them a little more sad.

The Writer's Mind
"For me, writing is such an escape, and I felt very lucky to have this to run away to." – Rachel Joyce Sometimes I wonder, is it only when a person has mental difficulties that they have the talent to write. Most famous authors suffered from mental illnesses and many of them ended their lives because of it. Sylvia Plath was trying to use writing to overcome her struggles but ended up gassing herself in her kitchen. Virginia Woolf has to be institutionalized because of the loss and the abuse she went through. Hemingway who loved boxing, hunting, and sailing, shot himself in the mouth, making his fans wonder if the image he was drawing of himself was just a mask for all his insecurities.

Depression
Should I even bother writing any of this down? I feel like it will just be discovered, read, and then used against me. These would be my feelings, my thoughts, and my emotions. These are not to be read then used against me yet somehow I feel they will be. Nothing feels safe anymore or should I say private.

Depressive Snares
If you have any semblance of humanity within, you have likely grown to realize that the real world is much harsher than you imagined in your barricaded childhood. However, it is not only the outside world that stops caring about you. Most people stop caring about themselves, as well, once they reach puberty. How does that make sense? Why would someone intentionally sabotage themselves? I’ve been intrigued by the logic behind depression and its self deprecating effects for nearly two years. Until recently, I considered myself a logical thinker, and depression was my next project to discover the reasoning for its existence. After all, everything has a logical explanation behind it, right? What I have found is that the answer is that it’s not logical. But before I elaborate, I should clarify that “illogical” does not mean “stupid.” When I describe self-sabotaging thoughts and actions as illogical or irrational, that is NOT an insult to the person thinking or performing them. It is not how they behave in a homeostatic state, hence why depression is classified as a mental illness. You don’t insult someone for being ill. These unfortunate souls have fallen into a trap that coerces them to let themselves bleed until they’re almost dead before even realizing they’ve been caught.

How To Tell If You're Burnt Out
