What is Depression? Well, i thought a lot about that question, some say it is a chemical thing and others say it is an emotional thing. Here is MY side of the story, the way I see it, not-sugarcoated-version of depression.... MY WAY.....The way i see it is that no-one really knows what it is and what causes it, i mean they speculate that it could be trauma that you suffered sometime in your life etc etc.
What angers me the most is that people whom never showed a sign of depression is now all of a sudden the expert on what it is, what causes it and what the cure is. Face it, there is NO cure, you have to live with it!
The meds they give you can only make it easier to handle but it does'nt "cure" you, when you've finished your prescription the problem is still there and the negative feelings may resurface again after a few months.
I should know, i too suffer from the "Big D". Having depression is NOT a death sentence, you just feel different about life that other people do.
What i want to achieve with this blogg is to HELP others who "suffer" from it and let them/you know that i am HERE for you if you want to talk and you just need an ear to listen, i do not have a doctors degree but i KNOW how you feel, and i can try and reach out to you.........if you let me....
