I Battle Depression and Anxiety

Sometimes I think there is a point in which you pass where there is no coming back. People never really seem to understand this about people who suffer from depression or anxiety, but sometimes a soul has felt more than enough pain, felt more than enough loneliness or enough hopelessness that it can't be healed from it's brokenness.A huge part of this sickness is the breaking of your will. Pessimistic thinking becomes insurmountable and you can't allow yourself to believe there is something worth living for or even that there is anything good in this life. In turn, the negative thinking becomes an addiction. You actually start thinking you want to be destroyed. You want nothing good for yourself, and you do this out of spite or anger. It's an endless cycle that leads to more pain and the worst part about it is, things shouldn't be this way. Things were never meant to be this way.

Exactly, on the outside it's so easy to put a face on for everyone one to see when deep down you're hurting inside. You're mind wanders off in this hole that's constantly neverending. That's the saddest part that I've noticed with myself is that not many people understand unless one has experienced it. We should look after one another and always check up on a friend how they are doing...

@kaisamar Definitely. Sorry you struggle with the same thing. Like you said it's important to keep in touch with eachother, could save someone's life without even realizing it.
