I drew this a while back I think this is actually something worth appreciating.
this is what its kinda like to have depression hold you back as a person.
don't ever be held back by something that you think weighs a millions pounds because you know a million pounds can be easily lifted by saying "I survived" and not getting torn down by the phrase "whats the point" that circles around in your head in the free time. I know it may be hard to stay positive when life has given you so many challenges but dont ever give up knowing the fact that you are loved and you have many people around you that you cant see but have there hand held out in front of you to life you up and say "hey, you did it. you beat the obstacle, now lets run together and enjoy the last few minutes or years we have left on this planet". Never lose yourself. keep your eyes open when you want them closed forever. Because not only will you rip through that strap of depression across your chest. you'll come out stronger and more in tune to the real you then the one that is holding you down until you cant get up anymore.

I love this. so much.
I'm dealing with HEAVY depression after the death of my mother and I'm trying so hard to cope. I have lived with my depression and bipolar without medication and it was just fine for the most part. Now I feel exactly like this little pup. Like someone's chained me down and I can't move on from this spot. But I'm trying. I'm seeking help and have an appointment soon. I have friends to talk to and I will get through this!
But this picture really helped. I mean I know there are millions of other people who suffer from depression, but that doesn't really get appreciated until I see someone closer who has the same feelings i do. Makes it feel a bit less like I'm just a big butthead lol. Thank you for sharing

I've tried countless times to somehow portray the pain and the guilt that real depression is. I've never been able to adequately express it though. It's not a lack of happiness, it's a lack of ability to achieve happiness. The brightest moments best characterized by "wasn't sad" and the worst as "I survived". So many people will scoff at the idea that an emotion can take over your life, but when your so sad and tired and angry that the only option your brain can offer is to end itself to take away the pain. Nothing can describe the self-loathing and hatred, the guilt and the blame, and everything that depression entails.
To you and anyone who's going through this right now: I've been there, and it does get better. Don't. Quit. Fighting. Every time you think bad of yourself, reverse it. Don't ponder it. You can make it through.
