It is not my friends who have given up on me, it is me who has given up on myself. I am the one to blame or I guess it is my depression that is to blame.

Who are our friends? Anyone from our past or our future can be our friends. We just need to defeat depression and let people in.

Why don't our friends understand us? Do we really give them a chance to understand us? I know that I don't because depression to me is very embarrassing and I don't know how to explain that I have this illness to people or what depression really does to me or how it makes me feel.

Why have our friends all gone away? They haven't gone away they just get tired of asking us to do things and we are always saying no I don't feel like it. So they stop asking. It is me that has gone away. My depression has made me uninterested in doing everything.

Why is it so hard to keep friends? If we don't smile, laugh or have a good time why do people really want us around. I don't believe that we lose our friends we lose ourselves to depression.

Why have our friends given up on us? Our friends don't give up on us we stop communicating with them. Depression makes it hard for us to show any emotions that will help us keep our friendships strong or communicate with others.

Anyways I just had these thoughts and wanted to share them.
