Depression isn’t “Oh I feel down today, let me just sleep all day.”
It’s “I feel like I’m dying while everyone around me is perfectly okay. I could go to sleep, never wake up and be completely okay with that, happy in fact. I love my favorite hobby but I can’t seem to move to be able to do it. I hate disappointing people but I just can’t do what they want me to or need me to do. I have no energy and I don’t care about a single thing even though I want to. I don’t remember what happiness feels like because it’s been so long. I miss my friends but I can’t bring myself to talk to them.I know people love me, but my head tells me different. It’s like my head and heart are fighting til the death. My head is a mess, my emotional pain is at all time high, and I’m gonna sleep because I can’t deal with this anymore.”
Understand the difference between sadness and depression.
