My diary of depression - what it is about, why I write it and so on

In a world full of sick people, depression is nearly normal nowadays. So many people suffer from it, but only a few talk about it.

My therapist suggested writing about depression and so this blog was born. I write in english cause it's easier for me to write in a foreign laguage than in German.

I'll try to write every day something, like a diary of my feelings, my thoughts. Maybe about sadness or happiness, maybe even about other people. I won't tell names tho.

Maybe this blog (if someone even reads it) can inform a bit about this illness. I don't want any pity, that'd be wrong. Depression has thousands of faces. Mine is one of them. It has so many symptoms, so many things belong to it.

So many people who suffer of depression are scared. Scared to lose people dear to them, scared to be stigmatized. Scared to hear "Oh come on, really? You don't have a reason for this!" and for real, this makes me fucking angry!

A sickness doesn't ask for a reason! Either you have it or you don't. Be happy if you don't have it, but try at least to understand, not everyone is as healthy as you!
