Depression does not always mean beautiful girls shattering at the wrists. A glorified, heroic nettle for your sanity. Or a mother who never got a chance to say goodbye.
Sometimes depression means not getting out of bed for three days. Because your feet refuse to believe that they will not shatter upon impact with the floor.
Sometimes depression means that summoning the will power to go downstairs and do the laundry, is the moat impressive thing you accomplish that week.
Sometimes depression means laying on the floor staring at the ceiling for hours, because you cannot convince your body that it is capable of movement.
Sometimes depression means not being able to write for weeks because the only words you have to offer the world are Trapped and Drowning and I Swear To God I'm Trying.
Sometimes depression means that every bone in your body aches but you have to keep going through the motions because you are not allowed to call into work depressed.
Sometimes depression means ignoring every phone call foe an entire month. Because yes, they have the right number, But you're not the person they're looking for. Not anymore.
