I feel this pain



[Sapphiregriffin]

it feels like your in a pool of water, you are drowning, constantly searching for air constantly searching for life, but you sink you sink deeper and see the faces of happy folks peering down at you, but they just smile and let you drop, they don't realize that your there, and then, all the weeds down there cut you, they cut your wrists and make you see you are alive, but they just weaken you, you drown, you wont survive easily without help or knowing how to swim out of your mental muck.

My best friend in the world killed herself because of her parents, her boyfriend, her work, school. Just all together too much for her. Her boyfriend broke up with her, she got fired, her grades slipped. She fell into a depression like no other. She never recovered from her depression. She eventually slit her wrists and killed herself. She was the only friend I had. We had been friends since we were born. Then in a month, she was gone. I then slipped into a depression. Refused to go to school.

I've been depressed for tha last few years and I havent realized it until now. the thought of being happy again makes me sick... the thought of living a few more years makes me sick. I almost start crying every time I look in the mirror. I've never told anyone before. no one would believe me... My family would think I'm crazy. this video made me cry.

[ImTyrantblade]

absolutely brilliant - way too often these days i wanna hurt myself because i know its the only thing that makes me feel good - its been over 2 months since i last cut but i cant keep avoiding cutting... i just cant

[bamboo]

i always feel like im in a dream and nothing really happens around me

The only ones who can tell you what depression is are the ones who have been through it, not just anyone who has felt "depressed" before. It's not enough to say "Depression hurts" or "it sucks" because sometimes you don't FEEL "hurt", therefore, it doesn't "suck". But what's so crippling about this illness is that you're left paralyzed with the cycle of thoughts that will cause you to do damage to your body. No one can really understand what it is unless they've been there. And I've been there.

[QuoGirl]

@QuoGirl btw, I'm addressing my comment to those who think that any person who has depression can simply change gears and stop feeling that way because they are the ones who just don't understand. btw, thank you for making this video and for elaborating on the idea that it makes you feel NUMB and being numb is better than feeling hurt. But then it doesn't last for very long 'cause once you stop feeling numb, the pain starts and it's like there's no other way out. I hope you're much better now.

you sound like the edge of tears -major hugs!- but this is so true...

[pingpong1998]

This is exactly what it feels like. I hope you feel so much better, and good luck. After I went into depression.. I've become wiser. And you, my dear, and the wisest of them all.. I respect you.

[ThreedaysGracelova]

[Brosuke]

If you stop giving a fuck about things you'll stop being depressed.

[Brookssee821]

You are awesome. I would love to be you for a day. I love your videos sweetie.

[rosenwolf]

Thanks for sharing your feelings, it's great. I feel the same many ways. I still remember when I couldn't laugh or even cry, I couldn't enjoy a beautiful sunny day. All my feelings were sucked up by this giant black hole. I just learned how to live with it. I gave up on fighting it. It's just part of me now.

[SorikuRingMaster]

First, I wanted to reach through & find a way to make you feel better. Second, you know that feeling well. You got it down perfectly. It usually gets better.

[unprettyprincess411]

Wow you look so damn sad, that it actually upset me more then I already was.... But you did get that feeling down pretty damn well.

[thefoosballwizard]

the description of depression feeling like ur chest is caving in is really good. thats exactly what i feel.

[MsCrz17]

Same thing happened to me as BFFLADQ ....

started crying............ the truth hurts.... just someone telling you how you feel ......

T_T

[BFFLADQ]

i started crying about a minute into the video. you got the feeling exactly. I dont know how you do it, but you just do. Thank you

[IntrepidStranger]

I know it sucks. You'll pull through though. It doesn't get better, you just cope and forget a little. I'm not even kidding though when I say exersise helps, just go for ajog every day till you're so tired that you'r whole body aches.

[HearMyScreams33]

I feel the same way!

Depression is like a wait that crushes your bones and shatters your sanity. It takes everything away and leaves a husk of emptyness. And then you try to use pain to fill the void. But no matter how often you rip open your flesh, no matter how long you starve or burn yourself.You'll never feel whole forever. The wounderful numbness that co-exists with the pain will only last for a while. Then the depression comes back. I hope you feel better, good luck.
