I struggle sometimes with thinking "Why am I depressed??" thinking that I have no right to be and that other people have things harder than I do...

There will always be people who have it harder than you, easier than you and are in a similar position to you. You are entitled to feel and your emotions are just as worthy and justified as the next person. Acceptance is key, don't question it, just go with it.

Depression has no one group that it goes after. Anyone from the poorest, most abused people to the most privileged, rich people can have just as bad depression, and the circumstances of ones life doesn't diminish their feelings.

But you re the one facing depression. You re the one having a harder time.

Just because other people have it harder doesn't mean your struggles, and your pain, aren't real or aren't worth anything. You do not need permission to be upset. It is okay to have emotions and feelings and to express them, but seeking help for depression is no small task and should never cause anyone shame or guilt.

Being depressed is a situation that you are having, feeling bad about it doesn't make it any better. You need to find a way to deal with it 1st before you can help others through what they are going through. People do not need to feeling bad/pity they need the help. So once you have helped yourself you can help them.

Being depressed is not a right, it's a horrible ordeal that nobody should have to go through but unfortunately so many of us do. If you are struggling with depression you should try your hardest to make yourself feel better on the inside without worrying about other people. It's like being selfish but in a really good way.

You can't help it and yes you ain't the only one going through this. It's the human tendency to think stupid and then think over how stupid it is that you are thinking so stupid :') Thoughts are like floods you can't avoid them but the brain still keeps on thinking about how you needn't need to be depressed; basically it keeps on analyzing each and every thought and action. Can't help it. Yes, but the next time you go through this remember this is totally natural and it will eventually pass away

Depression level varies a lot between people, I also feel depressed and think I have no right to be that as people had worse times, but that does not mean it's true. Every person has a level where they can break, and it varies. So don't worry about thinking you have no right to be depressed, because you have, but that doesn't mean you should, if you want, I can try to help you if you contact me :) If you don't contact me, I wish you the best of luck further on in life.

That is not the correct way of thinking, by this logic It'd be the same if you were to think "Why am I happy, I have no right to be happy and there are people who have it better than I do". Just because someone else has it worse doesn't mean that your problems are irrelevant.

Everything is relative how you feel is not a matter of how anyone else feels please know your feelings are OKAY!
