What do we know about this world?

we all know the word depressed. Do we know it's around us? Do we know what it's doing to people around us?

last night, I had the worst breakdown in the past few months. I had the urge to jump off my roof and end it at that moment. I didn't know what stopped me, but I didn't jump. Believe you me, I would have jumped if not for the thousands other depressed people. I want to help them through theirs.

When I was relieved, I had a thought, why not write something about depression? This is what I'm doing. I forgot what I wanted to put, but I'm just writing this naturally. unplanned, and all out of my head as it goes.Writing relieves me.

Here's a question, Do we know when people are depressed? answer's no. unless they come out.

I did, last year. not what I expected, but I did. I have to be honest, I've had breakdowns, as far as I can remember, since I was 5. I couldn't control my emotions at times...

I'm out of topic.

Lets put it this way, depression are thought to be an attract-attention-act. trust me, it's not. I've been there, still is probably. the first time depressed people come out, they want help. why can't we just help them? not attention seeking. After what I did, I'm closing up again.

There are people who cares. there are. It's just not enough in this world. They either care naturally, or they're at the same state (Meaning they're also depressed). I've had others come to me saying they've felt the same, so I helped them out, sometimes being a hypocrite.

Lets start off with signs of depression. I read a book once, one of the signs that someone's depressed is the change of appearance. Cut their hair? different types of clothing? These kinds of stuff. I think it's true, but not as a big factor, other people just wants to change. The other, most obvious sign is self-harming. Lets face, people that are depressed are suicidal, but others, isn't. NSSI, short for Non-suicidal Self Injury. this not uncommon. I've done it to be honest, to an extent that I even regret.

Self-harming isn't attention-seeking. tell me if, before people come out, do you really think they haven't done it before? You'd ask "isn't it painful?" or "doesn't it hurt?". compared to the pain the depression's pressuring the people, it isn't.

People sometimes shrug off the fact someone they know is depressed. don't. ever. I did that, it costed me dearly. half a life. So starting from today, lets stop stereotyping people with depression, or what is it you society call them? "emo" is it? don't.

Open up an accepting world for those people.
