Sadly, there are still a lot of people who lack any understanding for people with depression. I've been always kind of ashamed for my own issues, because I always felt like people didn't really understand. Depression is a horrible illness. Not only does it drain all of our motivation, our life forces, but it also makes it appear to you as if it were your fault. And, because it's not a visible disease, people often misjudge you as just being lazy or dramatic.

Don't despair, there are a lot of people here feeling like you. Hugs from me.
