psych-facts:

People think depression is sadness, crying, and dressing in black. But people are wrong.

Depression is the constant feeling of being numb. Depression is not a choice, it is a mental illness. You can’t just ask a person to snap out of it or to stop feeling sad. It’s like telling a person with a cold to stop sneezing and feeling sick.

There’s nothing to be ashamed of. Let’s raise awareness now. Do you know anyone who might be suffering from depression?
