How We All Live in a Depressed World

What Depression Feels Like

Those days you wake up and would like to scream but realise you have no voice so an inner voice from inside yourself screams itself allowing yourself to feel better. This situation does not allow yourself to leave but you really have to be strong enough to allow it to leave. It is like you do not want it to leave but then you do. It all starts off with a feeling of slight loneliness which you try to erase. However, after a few days you realise there is nothing to erase as it was not just a thought but a true fact. This intense feeling makes you believe that there is no one and that you are truly alone. Alone from the inside of your heart to the outside of your soul. It is hard to believe but this feeling comes to a lot of people once in a lifetime and it is about time to share this feeling with the entire world. People experiencing depression will relate to this because it will allow yourself to awaken as it is not the best place to be in at any point of your life. You start to question everything in your entire life, the good that you have done and the bad that you have committed. When deep down you know that good is good and bad is bad but you still end up questioning the good to make yourself feel better. Sadly, it does not work and you start to realise that nothing in this entire life makes you feel happy. This feeling can occur to anyone at any age and its very depressing when you are young and have to go through all this. I guess it is a sad fact that allows you to understand the concept of reality.

You may have achieved many things earlier in your life and you use that to erase the depression but it never works. It may work for a few hours but then reality really comes face to face with you and asks you if you had forgotten me. Truly only a lonely person and a lonely heart would understand the detailed feeling. You feel as if you are drowning and at some point you like that feeling because you want to drown. This allows you to feel that because you are drowning your worries and problems may drown with yourself. Unfortunately, you are not drowning and maybe do not want to drown because you feel there may be a better alternative. Nevertheless, there is never an alternative in this feeling, it is just a matter of time where you want to get up and move. Nobody can help you come out of the box you are trapped in. It is yourself who got trapped and it will have to be yourself to let you out. This may be the time you realise that it is the hardest time of your life and that no body could help or be there for you. The feeling consists of no body being there for you and some people who make you feel that everything will be fine but they just say it and of course do not mean it. Only a person who is true from the heart will want you to come out of depression and enjoy the real moments of your life. It is only yourself who will support you through your good and bad times. Do not forget yourself, even if you have trapped yourself into the box by mistake. It is you who can wake up and start over.
