Depression, for me, is like a massive stone placed on my chest, weighing me down literally and figuratively. And then another one is placed. And another one. And another one. Until the weight becomes constricting, squeezing the life out of me as more and more stones are put on without end.

"I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
-Litany Against Fear (Dune)
