If you could paint a picture of how you feel when you are depressed, what would it look like?

Take care,
Fuzzy

A Picture ????

It would be of a woman, standing alone in the rain, soaked, with tears in her eyes. It would be more of a black and white photograph. The air would be all foggy, and the night as black as ink.
I have plenty more, Fuzzy, "where" that was created
would you be interested if I put them down ??
Gee, when it comes to "painting" of depression, I could be an artist on a painting jag.

It would be all black... a black hole that I have fallen in and can't get out.

the happy world is in a bubble and I am on the outside in the darkness watching everyone else getting to live life without me. But that is my reality and the only way I know how to cope right now so it suits me just fine.

It would be a dark barren land, no life in site
It would look like the world had been sat on fire, and no one could put it out.

The trees would all be dead, and so would the fishes in the river, no life left alive,

This is what my picuture would look like

I'm going to change mine a bit from the last one...

A round, small room made of brick but padded with grey rubber. No doors or windows but I still keep looking for the door. I know it's there, somewhere, but I can't find it. I just keep bouncing off the walls and hurting myself.

My picture would be a figure sitting alone in a dark room... greys and whites would dominate the color as to symbloize cold... also shadowy balcks .... the figure would be surrounded by a grey black smoke...

This is not only and image, it is my reality.

Mann... my silly pictures look stupid next to the well thought descriptions you all are giving. I guess I didn't get it. Maybe I'll try again later.

My picture would be a lot like jac's. I would be standing outside in the darkness looking in. What I would be is invisible to everyone, because they don't really know me. They only see me as they want me to be. I try to be that person, but I'm not. So, I live my life alone and do what's expected of me. And wish for the courage to just be.

I'm not sure if I can think of a picture to describe my recent depression. But when I was younger I always thought of it as a big black hole that not even the light could escape it.

Willow, Sweetie.....That first pic was dead on in my opinion. I could totally relate to it. Being pulled under full speed and having no control.
They say a picuture speaks a thousand words. :O)
(plus it was really a cute pic)

Thanks my friends. I guess I took the idea literally that I was supposed to find a picture and post it. LOL! Thanks for supporting me in my insecurity attack. *HUGS*
