I forgot how it felt to want to interact with people, to do the things I loved.

To be honest, I did lose myself.

Depression is a lot of things, way beyond being sad.

Sometimes its fantasizing about death because it feels like the only way to be at peace.

Sometimes its being so numb you feel nothing at all.

There are times when depression pours down on you, flooding every area of your life.

Its not easy to come out of, and I dont believe its ever fully gone.

You are still compassionate, strong, and empathetic.

Despite all the hell youve endured, you have not lost your heart.

While I did lose parts of myself in the darkness at times, I was never completely lost.

The world needs people who understand darkness, because those people shine the biggest lights.
