Depression: A different world

Depression: A different world(Sarah) If you were to ask a hundred different people what the word 'depression' meant to them you would get a hundred different answers. Some say depression is a phase and others say it's a life sentence. I feel as if both are right. Some people deal with depression and finally find the key factors to being happy but others never find happiness. Depression is a complicated thing, it changes people into the exact person they said they would never be. People who are considered to be happy look into the lives of depressed ones and only see a deception. The way a person copes with a problem varies based on his of her beliefs and feelings towards the event. Depression, whether short or long term like you're drowning but you know and see all the people around you breathing. The feeling of being completely alone is such a scary thought. Some people are alive but dead at the same time. Their soul is dead but their physical body is still alive. One day, the body catches up to the soul and starts to slowly but surely erode into nothing but a mere memory of something that once everything. A lot of people talk about how scary death is, but depression makes death seem so magical, a place where you're accepted for who you are. People dealing with depression know how it feels to beg someone to take everything away. It makes you feel separate from the world, that you forget you're even alive. Most people who are depressed doesn't want a person to save them, for once In their life they want someone to stand by their side while they save themselves. Unless, you've felt it, you don't know how much a people has to hate themselves to degrade their own body. To look in the mirror and feel so much hatred towards yourself you have to look away. All you want, is to be happy. One day, people will realize how much one word can change a life.
