People who aren't depressed don't even come close to understanding what we go through. Now-a-days people use the term "depressed" and "sad" interchangeably. They're completely wrong. Sadness will go away with time and not tear a person apart as where depressions always there and completely destroys a person. I've had people tell me "it's okay, I know how you feel but go to bed and get some sleep and tomorrow will be better I promise". I have problems sleeping and right from there that "advice" meant nothing to me. It doesn't go away over night. But the one response that sent me over the top was "you're being a tad bit dramatic". I had to ignore the person for a day before I could calmly reply and not freak out. I'm still not too happy and can barely say anything without being rude and mean. The ignorant responses makes me feel like it's all me. I'm the problem. I'm weak and pathetic. It makes me so angry and put myself down even more. It's that entire scenario that has made me join this site. I hope to find people who do understand and won't be so clueless and ignorant
