What my depression feels like....

...See more I'm brand new here so I really hope I'm doing this right. It feels like I'm hanging on to the edge of a bottomless pit, like a deep dark empty void. Some days I feel strongly, I've got a good grip. I will pull myself back out into the world. Then I have days where I'm just so tired, I can see the way out but have no idea how to get there. I'm tired of fighting, I'm so incredibly lonely, I feel weak, I don't know how I got this way. I'm sick of people telling me to just snap out of it, that I'm just being dramatic or I want the attention. I miss the person I used to be, but I don't know how to get her back. My days are spent plastering on the fake smile, pretending that nothing is wrong going through the motions of life but definitely not living. And I'm so unbelievably lonely, I've never trusted people easily. Over the last few years the people I have let in, have proven that I'm way to much work. I guess that's why I joined this site, I'm terrified to ask for help,it makes me feel so weak. But I can't keep ahold of this edge anymore. So I'm willing to put my hand out,is anyone willing to grab hold?
