I would describe it as a feeling of emptiness. A feeling of being alone without actually being lonely. A feeling of despair and desperation to be heard, but yet feeling as if nobody would understand. Depression is sadness, confusion, and an internal pain that seems to have no end.

Depression is numbness, not the a bad mood or a good mood. It's the feeling of absolute nothing and the fear that it will never get any better.

Depression is like a demon following you telling you, you can't do this or that ect and it gets bigger if you don't try and stop it.

I would describe it, as this.
You feel like you are drowning, you are underwater, and nobody can hear your pain. Breathing is hard, impossible yet you are still alive. You are falling away from society, yet you can see everyone around you.

It's the feeling of hopeless about anything. Giving up on love and saying yourself that you suck at everything. You see everything bad, more then it is. Depression can take you away. It takes you away from reality and good times. You become the other - harder to live - person.

Like a dementor. It feels like you can never be happy again. Enough said.

Depression is like drowning in a dark, murky, polluted river, but everyone around you is fine and living a utopian life.

A clever and hard-to-get-out-of trap caused by a loss of sense of purpose or meaning in life. A place where you feel numb and stuck, and where your brain tries to override you with negative thoughts and feelings.

I would describe depression with a quote from Fool's Garden's 'Lemon Tree': "I'm sitting here
I miss the power
I'd like to go out taking a shower
But there's a heavy cloud inside my head
I feel so tired
Put myself into bed
While nothing ever happens"
Do I have the right to feel depressed even if I'm privileged?
