Depression
Depression doesn't always look like sadness — sometimes it's just flatness, a day that takes far more effort than it should, or realizing you've stopped caring about things you used to. It can last a long time, and it doesn't always resolve neatly. These are honest stories from people who've lived through it, including the parts that are still ongoing.
A note on every story here: these are individual personal experiences, not medical advice. What worked for one person may not work for you, and nothing on this page replaces consultation with a qualified professional. Full notice.
