Depression anxiety and everything in between

I really don’t want to write about this, but its all i could come up with so here goes nothing.

Depression is a monster. It consumes your thoughts, actions, your life. Depression is something that in this current time is really prominent. With saying this though comes the fact that not everyones depression is super bad. Sometimes its trauma induced, which is what i had when my depression first started. That story’s for another day however. Some depression comes from difficult home life or other mental illnesses. I will be the one to say that no matter how small, if you think you have depression, then i will believe you. However i have seen many people lie about having depression for attention and that is not forgivable. See then there are the people who self harm for attention. I know some people that did that. Its really stupid because when you do it for attention everyone is feeling sorry for you and trying to help you but when you are struggling to stay alive on a day to day basis your a freak…

Anxiety is something that for me came with my depression. It is common to have anxiety and depression but not certain. Most people have anxiety and then get depression because of their anxiety. Anxiety can be better or worse than depression. On one hand anxiety will only come when you are under extreme stress or just not in the right place. On the other hand anxiety is just always there lurking, waiting for you to do something stupid. An example is when you need to talk to people or are put into a situation with a lot of people. Your brain tells you to talk to people or they will think your weird but then you remember that if you try and talk with people it will just be awkward and then you worry that people will still think your weird.

Anyway ya thats a little rant on some mental illnesses. I highly recommend watching “explaining my depression to my mother” its slam poetry and just describes everything really well.
