The first time I was in the osych hospital after my breakdown un 1994, I was told that depression was anger turned inward.
Interesting at that time I didnt get what was REALLY making me angry....so we all looked at the surface level reason of losing my engineering career. No one including myself realized my career was my escape from my bad marriage & without it I ended up with no escape & I ended up like a trapped animal in a bad situstion with no way out.
It was so clear 13 years later when I endedbup with a way out but the bad had become such a normal it was like the frog in a pot of water that ends up heating up to boiling without the frog even noticing it.
Sometimes the anger that is building up within us isnt that obvious but its there being turned inward & creating the depression we experience without the real understsnding ofvwhere it is actually coming from. Withiut good therapy that hekps uncover the hidden reason, we continue unknowingly just suffering depression without gettkng to the root of its source.
Something that seems so obvious once oncovered & analyzed but until then we continue to suffer
