How would you describe depression?

depression is a deep emotion within a person that trapped inside and hinders a person to see the real world through a brighter side

Depression is drowning, but seeing everybody else breathing is how i always describe it. You have friends but you constantly never want to talk to them because you feel like a bother. You just can't be happy

depression is a mental disorder in witch someone is always sad or just not them selfs, a lot of things can cause depression or your just born with it.

Depression can be like a puddle. Sometimes you don't know how you stepped in it. But once you have you're cold. And sometimes being in the water feels warmer than when you leave. For some the puddle is wider. Some it is deeper.some just keep stepping in them. And then there's people who have pools. And then lakes. And rivers. And oceans But we all have to leave the water sometime emotional hypothermia is not a good thing

I would describe depression as this wall. It is a wall that gets between you and life. You stop being able to enjoy things you once enjoyed and cared about. It becomes difficult to care about or do simple everyday tasks. You feel guilty for not maintaining relationships with people. It can become hard to go to work- or even get out of the house. Depression is a very real thing- some of us deal with it from time to time and others experience it all the time.

An absence of hope, a period that i call "Pitch Black" because during this time we see all dark, we don't see a future anymore, we don't feel love for ourself and in extreme cases suicidal thoughts can start.

Irritating, Annoying.. and everything like that. i hope no one goes through depression. but it has some good points but you have to look closer.

Depression feels like being pulled out to sea despite taking precautions and/or knowing how to swim. Sometimes it's inevitable due to a chemical imbalance, and other times we put ourselves in compromising positions. Depression is never easy especially as a teenager, because it is often overlooked due to the fact that many adults view it as a teenager being melodramatic. Depression is an uphill battle that everyone faces at some point in their life, but some people's hills are steeper than others. It is never easy to overcome it but you can overcome it with the love and support of others.

Depression is drowning in your own thoughts and knowing that you can breathe but somehow you unconsciously and sometimes willingly grip your throat and suppress your lungs for air. Sometimes you get a whiff of that breathable air but then just one bubble pops and it's waves and waves of tides once again.

I would describe depression as a common yet serious thing. Depression is a horrible illness that lots of people suffer. I think depression is kind of a state you're in that completely takes over and starts to take a toll on your life, making daily activities challenging that wouldn't normally be. It seems endless, the feeling gets worse and worse before it ever gets better. Hang in there, getting help can get you places you never thought you would be.

To me depression is like being constantly trapped in a thick fog. You can't see anything or feel anything, and there's no way of knowing when you'll get out. It's scary and horrible but also oddly numbing, and above all incredibly lonely.

You'd feel like you could't wake up. Or don't want to wake up. Like everything and everyone in the world is against you. You feel lost. Not sure what to do. "Do I do this right?" "Should I quit?" You'll feel like nothing goes right. Like everything is pointless. You lose interest in things you once loved doing.

The word depression conjures an image of a heavy blanket thrown on someones back or even a person. For some they can do what they did before but the pep in their step is gone and there always feels to be a heavy weight on their back and for others the weight simply becomes to much and the toll on their emotions is crippling.

I would describe depression as a feeling of helplessness or hopelessness that you cant seem to get over. You may feel increased sadness, or like you are in a funk that you can't get out of. You may find that you can no longer perform your normal daily activities the way you used to. If you find that you are feeling this way please seek advice from a medical professional such as a doctor, counselor or therapist.

It's like an endless, dark well full with negativity and hate towards yourself and other people, where you have no interest in things and you can easily drown.

It is different for every person, but I would say it is a state of mind that prevents you from living your day to day life, and becomes an impediment in allowing ones' true self to come across.

I would describe depression by feeling down all the time not wonting to bother with people and doing things and wanting to cry without knowing why sometimes

A person who is very sad always crying or feeling blue that they cant stand to be around others who dont really dont like to Do the things they used to do...

Like everything inside you rotting, being burned to ashes, or frozen. Like being in the dark, underwater, slowley suffocating, finding spots with just enough air to keep you alive until the next one, but you keep struggling, cause somewhere must be a way out.

Bad mood,bad appetite,losing interest to everything and everyone.You have no any new ideas.Crying whole day.

There's no one way to describe depression. For me it was like being trapped in a bubble. Sometimes that bubble would get really big and I'd be able to have fun and suck, other times it felt like that bubble was going to crush me with its weight.

Depression is like a raincloud that constantly looms over you, follows you everywhere you go. It's a difficult, but not impossible, thing to overcome and deal with. Especially on your own.

I tend to think of depression as a cloud that hangs over your head, and follows you to a lot of places! I don't really know how to describe it.

Depression is like suffocating. You just feel completely numb and heavy. At times it's hard to even take a deep breath. You can't even move. You just have to sit there, and let yourself sink lower and lower into never ending sadness. At times all you can think about is how you should just end it all. How this never ending pain could finally disappear, along with you. At other times all you can do is think about how alone you feel feel. No matter how many people are around you or try to help you, you just feel so unbelievably alone. Nothing ever seems to help. Sometimes you just take it out on yourself with a blade, trying with every bone in you're body to relieve some of the pain. Sometimes you just can't stop crying. But most of all, you just have to lay there motionless. You can't feel anything except you're paralyzing thoughts running through you're head. You lay there hoping maybe tonight you'll fall asleep. Or on really bad nights, that you won't ever wake up..

Depression is having everything else in the world - people around you, logic, rationale - tell you one thing and a part of your brain over-riding that with negativity, despair and confusion.

The state of emptiness. Feeling overwhelemed with feelings of nothingness. A kind of sadness but not quite sadness. Just the feeling of emotional morbidity

Depression is different for everyone the general common feeling shared is sadness and often numbness or emptiness. It is different for everyone however, this means you can be feeling any number emotions nothing is right or wrong when it comes to depression.

Everyone occasionally feels blue or sad. But these feelings are usually short-lived and pass within a couple of days. When you have depression, it interferes with daily life and causes pain for both you and those who care about you.

It's a black hole that keeps getting bigger and bigger sucking you in, unless you fight it over and don't let yourself go over.
