I think depression is quite like cancer in a way that it can sneak up on you and before you know it, that little negative thought in your head can end up killing you. We dont have a sympathetic society to mental health issues, so it can be very distressing and distructive. Depression kills. Just like cancer. Reach out ask for help. Its not always aparrent to your loved ones / friends how you are feeling. We ask "How are you" and the reply maybe "I'm fine. What I'm trying to say is that help is out there, and the hardest step is the first. I NEED HELP. Please dont take me up as trivialising cancer but dont we trivialise depression. What are your thoughts.
