Depression can look like the funniest person in the room
Robin Williams. Rest in peace ⚘
Tbh both are accurate. The 1st is just when i failed to hold it
That's why she said what depression can ALSO look like
The 1st actually feels quite nice once in a while.
Same
Same,just now I had my first breakdown and no one's there for me:)...just how I need it be😊
School is tough.... oh btw I hope your alright now❤
True
People think of depression as deep sadness, but it's really deep despair.
Sadness is hurting because you're unhappy. Despair is becoming numb to sadness, joy, anger, fear, etc. because you see no point to any of it.
It's how so many people with depression can still remain functional and how so many of their family members & friends can be blindsided when they end it all.
"But they didn't seem depressed!"
Playing charades makes it all harder too. Speak up and get help.
YOU DEFINITELY HIT THE HEAD ON THE NAIL WITH THAT POINT....GOD BLESSINGS EVERYONE ❤🙏🏾
What you wrote is 💯 true
To the point... accurate.... The numbness and the pointless ness
I think you are describing resignation as a mental attitude that can follow a long period off despair. Despair is a strongly choatic feeling and very emotional while the numbness you can up in is the opposite of that. Depression can be many things but often its someone pushing through in survival mode while shutting their feeling off
Don’t forget the smiles with tired eyes behind them
Smiles through the pain , at least that's what I deal with
💙💙💙
I smile through the pain
@Thawne1338yes
I smile through the pain too! I also don’t cry when i’m physically hurt!
@Thawne1338ye
What I hate about it is when you open up about it to the people you are close with and they just shrug you off and give you advice like it is easy to just snap out of it and be happy.
Yesssss
I feel EVERY BIT of this comment plus on top of that it just makes you feel even more alone
Most of them have never experienced the levels of depression that others have, or they have and found it easy to deal with...that's why it's easier for them to tell you get over it
They forget we are all different ❤
True. They tell you oh just be happy. You're like what?!
My depression made me a dead man.
Like a soldier who fear nothing and now have nothing to lose and love. And not even afraid of death.
Pls do trt magnesium glycinate.. some times vitamin deficiencies can cause these..
Me to.
Exactly! My
Psychiatrist once told me I was a high functioning morbidly depressed individual. He was spot on. I just hid my depression thru my work. I was always working and “doing”.
This is me i over my self
To all the people who are clinically depressed, I’m so sorry to hear that 😢😢 it is not easy to fight with it at all
Thank you❤...it...means a lot

And be happy
Thank you so much that really means a lot and it is really hard
Ty…
I hide it until I get to my room. Then I cry for hours
Hey, Life is as realistic as death, what life has that its better is that you can eliminate the suffering and feel only Pleasure, death is lame and stupid, there was a point for you to live and that is for you to have fun, So Focus on that!
you got this
Ur not the only one.
Same, i can't wait to get home and just cry
I can totally understand. I was in same condition few years back. Please go to doctor speak your heart out. It is curable. You are not alone ❤ I wish for your good health 💟🙏
This is so true. I was sitting in my room crying and then my friend texted me so I wiped my tears and started joking with her even though I’m really sad and want to just sleep
Depression hits hardest when you’re alone
Depression is not shown to others because it is seen as embarrassing so it's actually likely to be both. You get on with your day without showing any emotions to just break down or feel low in your room where no one will give you a reaction.
yeah but my sister has her own bed in my room so I cant breakdown unless she sleeps somewhere else.
@@V1d3oMxlsgo outside, breakdown in the warm shower. Let it out, don't keep it all bottled in like I did.
@@V1d3oMxlsYou can breakdown in silence
Yes it's me
help me
I understand this feeling unfortunately. And the worst thing is when they call you selfish.
EXACTLY, today I went to like a family trip and we took a lot of photos and my mother and father were like you always don't engage in family you are so selfish because I wasn't giving a genuine smile. I am struggling with depression and anxiety and I'm not the person to tell my parents or friends about stuff like this. I'm always on my desk studying not interacting with anyone in the house because I want to keep myself busy and they always assume why.
My only friend is toxic to me and he says I'm selfish..
@@Cinnamonroll010I'm sorry to hear that... remember that, sooner or later, things will get better
You are not selfish. You are not alone.
I still remember how shattered I felt inside when they called me selfie and dishonest
I’m so sorry for anyone struggling. It’s been so long. God bless u all
Life hit different 2014-2019 i will never get that back
for real bro 😭
After high School no joke it feels like it's been all down hill
I miss the good old days of childhood, back when you just were living in the moment and had very achievable dreams. Now it is all suffering sometimes. Looking back in the past to see how fun it was versus looking now really can put you down sometimes. Best advice I can give as a 17 year old teenager, is to live in the moment, and don't give a rat's nest about people's expectations or the future sometimes. Slacking off and cruising around can be good for you sometimes. Think about doing less work and responsibilities, because as a teenager right now, I like to live life slowly and not push myself hard. That way, you have a breathing room and things that you live for. I am a car enthusiast who drives a manual car perfectly, bicycle racer, and good FPS gamer. Even though none of these things will get me a career or help me get a job, I view them as an identity and purpose of who I am, and do not let anyone take away your passions from you. Sure, the past was awesome, with the golden age of video games and childhood, but think about all of the advancements you made so far, remember how scary it was to get in trouble as a child, or remember how messed up things could be, and how weak you were. As you get older, appreciate the advantages and advancements you made in life, things you learn are invaluable. Heck, if you are a gamer, wait for GTA 6. It is on the horizon and it sure has made people, including me, feel some motivation and a desire to be in the best shape when the game drops. Despite all of this, it can still be hard to not feel down at times, including myself, especially with the things wrong today as well as nostalgia, but try your best and keep distracting yourself with things you enjoy, and maybe consider having a slight ego and drive to be the best at what you do, that way, you keep getting distracted from negative thoughts. Even with the future seeming bleak, look at technological innovations and our ancestors, imagined how hard it was to live back then. Appreciate the little things. Technology advances at a rapid rate, and the only way to witness them is to stick around. Most importantly, take care of yourself, sleep being the most neglected. Give your body a chance to heal yourself. It will process negative emotions to help you feel better and overcome them. Your body, with adequate rest, will take care of you as it is designed and willing to do so as long as you let it do so. If things get out of hand and you feel suicidal, don't listen to your negative thoughts and isolation behavior, get some help with professionals, and believe me, once you realize that someone cares for you, you will immediately change and begin to trust and open up. It may seem embarrassing, but your body and brain will forget about those things, and you will feel a relief with human connection and validation. Easier said than done, but hopefully things get better. Good luck to you all.
@@beatrix-ec1xfI agree
Imagine working so hard and it doesnt reflect in your results
It sucks so much, I'm so scared of it
I don't like this shit
Its takes the life out of you
Yeahhh....no idea what that's like....😢
I’m literally sick of trying, and chasing goals, and coming up with reasons to like living. I hate to say it that way but I feel like that’s what life is, finding something to live for and enjoy life about.
I realize that on the inside there’s something missing or underdeveloped and I just can’t live life like a mentally healthier person can. I have to try extra hard just to be a healthy person on a baseline level which makes having daily life goals on top of that EXTRA strenuous, but no one knows the work I do every second of everyday. THATS the painful part. They just judge the pouting and the “deer in headlights” look on my face, but I’m not only sad but I’m tired. I’ve been at this all my life and sometimes I feel like I’m just not there yet. I wish I could just turn my brain and emotions off, maybe I can get more done. I’ve just become worse as a human as the years gone by. Self preservation and survival has been the name of the game, I don’t even think I’m capable of loving myself and others like I use to feel when I wad younger. That childlike heart is wilted.
I just stare at the wall. tears on my face and overthinking everything.. I try to stop crying but when I think about the problem I feel weak and let it all out.. the worst part is that I hide it from everyone
Ur not alone.
Me too. Don’t hide it, tell someone you trust. Or a mental health professional. You shouldn’t have to hold it in.
I understand, tell someone you trust. If you have no one, I recommend telling Jesus. He can take away all your pain, burdens, EVERYTHING your bottling in. Jesus died for you for a reason. God bless you. 🩷 Is it okay if I pray for you?
Just know the Holy Spirit can guide you to the right paths. Jesus loves you, my friend. If you need anyone to talk to, you can too me, if your comfortable with it! ❤❤
@@pullpulse123Same 😢Nobody cares for me
@@KetzalySantos I’m a Muslim 😓
"“The prettiest smiles hide the deepest secrets."
First is when people don't give a shit about your cries for help. Second is when you give up on looking for help from people and just cope with it.
I get called bubbly and likeable at work but they don't know what I'm really going thru
Literally me
Hate being called it
I'm sorry to hear you're not feeling well inside. I always wondered if bubbly people were really happy all the time, or they were just putting on a brave face, to not burden others. I low key envy you. Because, my sadness peaks through, it shows on my face despite my best efforts to hold it all in. Not that I wanna hide it completely, but I'd like to be able to chose when and who I share this with, lol 😅
@@sherrytzasherrytza4793I would rather not burden anyone
🥺
Anxiety happens when you think you have to figure out everything all at once.
Breathe . You're strong. You got this Take it day by day.
That's true tbh
Day by day ? I say take it moment by moment present. Be the Observer of your thoughts and emotions. Know what is your pain body and how to heal it. Learn about how to abide in the inner-body. Learn the power of now. This is all practical. Human suffering is created for the most part because we are identified with the mind. If we don’t choose to wake up now, we will be awoken in time with greater suffering.
Like my mom always say to me: one task at a time, one day at a time🥺🥺
Not always, it depends on the cause. Mine just creeps in whenever I get a flare from the chronic disease.
Thank you
As someone who has had depression, the 1st one is also accurate. Depends on if the person will try to hide it or not.
The first one is very accurate. We stigmatize people who look sad. I don't trust people claiming to have smiling depression. You can't hide depression. It doesn't make sense.

Cry in ur room
Bro
People will never understand what we go through….
I don't know if it's but I have
E to keep a secret from my mom and my heart it's telling me go tell ur mom I did the last night 🌙 but I used to cry eve
Cry night.so I understand
For all the people who are dealing with this I am so sorry you deserve peace and happiness and so much more. You are important. You are not a waste. You’re beautiful you are handsome you are smart and talented. What do you feel and what you think what’s in your mind, and in your heart is important you deserve to be listen to you deserve happiness
Thanks for the support I really appreciate it! GOD bless you 🙏🙏
Needed this💗. Thank u love🙏🏾
Depression LOVES people who don't move! You dotta move! Life = movement!
I do both.
Nothing makes me TRULY happy 😔
If you lose someone in your family sibling mother father you will always be half sad everyday. It never ever goes away. It’s a weird feeling honestly
So true. A part of us just goes away with them. 😢
The first one is how my depression feels 😢 the second one is what I try to be so no one notices it... 😭
I embrace my sadness now, rather than try to go against it. If I get a burst of energy before it kicks in, I use that to get things done especially with 2 small children under 5. Hang in there everyone.
People think I'm an introvert but the truth is I just want to be alone a lot.
Same, I’m introvert too
That what’s a introvert is they enjoy being alone
Well unfortunately my country is an extrovert country and people here are extroverted. Now i feel like im the only one who is introverted being forced to be extroverted
Same
Depression don't have looks. It can be inside of anyone no matter what they look or what they are doing.
Depression is no joke. I know. Kind regards from Belgium.
I hope you’re doing okay friend. You are so strong for dealing with this because it can be really hard. But never give up and know that you can work through it. There is always hope. I’ll pray for you friend. Jesus loves you, as shown by His life, death, and resurrection to give us all eternal life. He is there for you too

And be happy
Sometimes people with depression are those most smiling and showing joy in the workplace all the time...because they overdo the acting to make it convincing. Nobody is happy all the time. So this is how you can spot it as well
I always seem cheerful on the outside but I’m actually crying on the inside
Every day I have to put a smile on my face and if I don’t force a smile I cry uncontrollably
Please don’t suffer alone. Talk to someone you trust, supressing everything is not good for you, you can vent to me if you don’t mind? Your not alone ❤
You can vent here bro, you're not alone
Hugs
Me too
I often like to smile and make people laugh a lot. Just those small interactions help a lot inside.
I think this is part of the reason some people don’t even know they’re depressed! It can also look like anger and irritability.
The word'' depression'' ,first time i heard that word from my frnd ...i never knew wht it was.. life was very hard for me in my 18... i never knew i had been going through one ,its like i am swimming in ocean without knowing its a ocean...i thought its just water ,u just have to swim to survive..but it was diffrent...now i am ok,but really deep inside not. Just living with a flow. Guys whoever is going through this , take help, dont loose urself ,u r stronger than u think,speak to urself, love urself ,ask urself how precious u r ,stop hurting urself . sending lots of love and prayers ❤❤❤
I told my family and friends i feel like a failure when they ask me "are you okay?" And they said I'm seeking for attention/it's all in your head/you have nothing to feel depressed. Then i hand them the result from the psychiatrist that said i have a severe depression. Since then, i never told anyone about my feeling.
Don't ask someone "are you okay?" when you don't mean it guys.. it hurt..
I regret telling my family. The end
❤❤❤
@@juneautumn3067why?
They only ask if you’re okay but they never suspect that it would be depression. Many people like to anyhow say when they know almost nothing about depression like smiling depression 😢
I should never have told my family
I'm depressed when I get up everyday and look for a job.
Life sucks
Same here dude 😢
Life does sucks. But know that Jesus can help you! You can (if you want) place you trust in Him! He died for you and loves you so much, it’s hard to explain. His love is amazing. When we follow Him, It doesn’t mean our lives are PERFECT, we will go through stuff and the devil is real, sadly. Can I pray for you? I’m not gonna force you, you can choose. ❤
I just make sure no one knows then I sit in my bedroom crying myself to sleep and dealing with all these thoughts
Lord Jesus, may we come to You always. Amen.
Remember, you are not alone - seeking help and support is a brave step toward overcoming depression.
you are very correct, your awesome 👌.
We can be happy too just that happiness doesn't last
Exactly how I feel . I'm literally in bed just feeling so down. 😢
It’s scary when we live in a world that don’t know what people don’t even know what a mental health problem is..
It's hard and I hate when people tell me to get counseling. I just feel like they just want to hand me over to someone else instead of helping with the pain.
When I tell my daughter to consider counseling is because I really don’t have the skills or tools to help her heal. Most times it is well intentioned to advise to reach for help.
I’m saying this as someone with depression and a slew of other things:
Assuming you’re an adult, it’s your responsibility to go get help. Depression is a treatable illness. Medication will help you chemically, counseling will help with coping skills.
Sometimes you do just need a friend for a shoulder to cry on, and a good friend will be there for that when it’s needed. But if you’re not taking steps to help yourself, no one else is going to be able to help you, and you’re just going to become an energy vacuum for the people in your life
If you’re still a kid, that’s a different story. You still need to get help, but you’re going to need help to get help. Talk to a parent. If your parents don’t help, talk to any adult who you trust. Preferably someone at school maybe with some kind of authority who isn’t afraid to go to your parents and suggest getting you treatment. Get the ball rolling.
Either way, best of luck. Be strong and get treatment.
They are telling you to go counselling because it’s for your own good. They have no skills to help you that’s why they want you to go to counselling
Counseling does help, but then you’ll be more depressed when you get the bill.
This world was just lacking for love, everyone needs that. The moments you spend with people you shall cherish it every second. Most of all people ignore being open hearted and that explains why people get depressed.
The problem is fear of being open-hearted to wrong people. You end up getting more hurt.
It can also look like smiles, joy, people pleasing, humor, and life of the party....missing a whole lot here.
Many people don't show what they're dealing with, and unfortunately many people who we see as "normal", suffer from so much shit that they end up taking their own life which is honestly really sad to know people around us could reach to this extent without us seeing any kind of red flag
What depression really looks like: *insert a person smiling with their friends and dancing*
I don’t have one
In the outside I'm happy, but in the inside im heartbroken....
The "what people think depression looks like" part was me everyday
It becomes even more difficult when you have to show everyone that everything is okay while only you know how tough it's....
You can't even show to your family because you don't wanna stress them and also because they won't understand
The invisible struggles of depression can indeed make it a challenging battle, often hidden behind a façade.
People say ‘depression is like being sad all the time’ because that’s the easiest way to explain it, for me at least it’s not like that, in fact I have a complete absence of emotion, pleasure etc. it feels you you are just sitting in a cold bare corridor waiting to grow old and die.
Interestingly I don’t experience dreams and don’t recall anything upon waking. And I get headaches.
The first one is usually the pit you hit when your in extreme depression
I was in a deep depression back in 2020. I used to go to work and do my tasks with my face full of tears. I remember also couple of times when I used to cook lunch for myself with my eyes full of tears and a dead feeling inside.. it was a horrible couple of weeks until I started therapy for the first time in my life. So I relate to the video. However, I would also say that depression is a phase not a temporary one week feelings !!.. so if you reach my level or the level in this video I would urge you to seek help as soon as possible. Most of the times it will spiral to much worse situation going from this level.. unless u reach out for help and used all the resources available to u.
Be safe and take care of yourself and your emotions ❤
My emotional pain seems to have a stronghold on me, its grip unyielding and relentless. It's like a dark shadow, always lurking in the corners of my mind, ready to surge forth at the slightest provocation. No matter how hard I try to run from it, to hide from it, it always finds me. It's a relentless cycle that appears to know no end, a vicious circle of emotional distress that I can't seem to shake off.
Depression helps me to focus on my goals and work harder
This is my experience. It is insane. I am healthier now, but I am not driven to goals that could kill someone from overworking. Or maybe I am so used to being on the edge that healthy feels too easy. Like something will snap or I am in a delusion. But that is just the fun of perspective and doesn’t actually mean much- just a life shift. 😅
Wow, what the hell. Same thing happened to me
Me too. It pushes me. I hate that depressice feeling and its worth the hard work to get out of it.
@@KS-li2onhow explain
Wow...depression completely strips most people. Good for you
Some of the worst things I heard when I got diagnosed with severe anxiety and depression was: "why don't you just be happy?", "you aren't depressed unless you have tried to take your own life", "you're just such a selfish human being" or "stop being lazy and get up".
If you are currently depressed and heard any of these comments, just know that there exist people who understand what you are going though and we wish you the best. Depression does not disappear over night, it's something you often need a professional to solve. Just know that you are worth it and even when you feel like nobody loves you, there's at least 1. And that will be me. Stay strong ❤
Depression is basically burning from inside, being paralyzed, becoming totally numb and feeling stuck with incredible inner pain & having demons within your head killing you mentally, physically and emotionally. Its insanely difficult to battle depression especially if you are own your own. To anyone with depression or anxiety, I swear to God you are not alone and you are loved and you deserve so much more love and respect. Please don't give up. Seek help. People will take care of you but you need to take that first step. Do it for yourself.
True. And you can add a lot of crying too.
I’m sorry to hear friend. My heart goes out to you and I want you to know that you can work through this 🤍 surround yourself with love and support because you deserve it. God loves and cares for you. He is there for you, and I am too if you need to talk
“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life” John 3:16
I am crying right now
Unless you can't cry
Yep today is one of those days I’m paralyzed and can get out of bed or have a desire to do anything now crying but have learned to live with it so days aren’t as bad as others
This is very true, and is very important to keep in mind. There are probably, no, definitely at least one person who you see every day, or many times during the week, that is suffering through something, and you probably don't realize. It is always a good idea to check in with your friends, keep an ear out for how they are speaking or what they are saying, how much energy they have, and if its more or less than normal, so you can help them.
What it can also look like:
Laughing and smiling with your fellow students.
“Your too young for depression’’
so I hide it
The 1st is actually my style of depression. Normally, I am a very productive individual who has a vision and chases their goals, and I have many passions and topics to study and research. The 2nd one is actually me at my best. And then I reward myself with either video games, or long brisk walking, or hanging around with fun and interesting friends and family.
So when I am depressed, I am everything but productive. I go moody and lazy and uninspired. I shut myself away. No activity whatsoever. No distractions either. Just completely feeling my feelings, and I absolutely hate being in this dark moment. It feels so paralyzing.
you are me.
This is actually depression. The idea of high functioning depression is a load of ...... When you meet a high functioning depression person they shame you and stigmatize you. I'll never trust another functioning depression person ever again. They play games and are narcs. You can't fake depression. It's impossible.
I have clinical depression with psychosis. I get good and bad days, the bed days are normal due to my health in general but we can smile, act fine and physically seem normal. We all cope differently, there is no right or wrong way. Sending hugs 🤗
I’m crying with you - life is so hard. When supports don’t exist it’s unbearable. People need to be there for one another with kindness and compassion❤. It’s difficult to understand mental health if you don’t suffer from it…
I am going through the deepest depression of my life. I'm trying so hard to find a reason to keep going
“Try not to feel their pain feel yours”
-UNKNOWN
Depression and anxiety is completely normal. Life is full of unknowns and it can get overwhelming. Not everything is about buying shit and looking good.
When I'm depressed, like during a depressive illness, I am anything but normal. I want to sleep 24 hours a day and really don't want to get out of bed even when my legs are on fire with cramp.
1st one: me home alone
2nd one: me around ppl
I left my job this year after 10 years cause I hated it, in fact I didn't know what to do with my life since I got a severe depression. The meds did'nt help at all I just did'nt get panic attack anymore. I started back school for a new career thinking it would be easier for my mental health but since I left my job things just got worst. Stress and anxiety is eating my last piece of soul. My dad is bipolar and alcoholic, he never really talked with me about it. I'm 28 now and I've never been so clueless about who I really am.
i just smile so nobody expects anything
Depression can looks different in different people
thats the thing when im having depression in hard times and when I talk abt it to someone close all they say is " u don't look depressed u don't know what Ive gone through stop lying "
Depressed people have the best songs in their playlists 😢
I always smile through pain
Do you need someone to talk to?
Me i say ouch
Us on the outside: *smiling*
Us on the inside: *deep sadness*
I absolutely hate it when you have sad or have anxiety or lack confidence and people say, “just push yourself and try to be be more confident, it’s not that hard!” Or “cheer up, there’s nothing to be sad about, just try to be a bit happier” because it’s really not that easy.
I feel you my mom is also depression patient for 25 years seing her suffering break my heart
Depression looks like… having a mother in law say you’re lazy.
Depression can be so different from one person to the other.
My in-laws also called me lazy. It hurts.
Depression is a type of selfishness that you have to fight through because it's a tactic that the enemy uses to enter your mind to take control of.
School is making me overthink all of this it drives me to depression and insanity quickly
There is just way too much positivity about depression. Can I just be depressed without feeling guilty about it? I will get through it.

Thank you for that. ❤ I'm very proud of you too. Wherever your journey leads you, may God be with you
its hard to tell if someone is depressed cause you can never really tell cause everyone deals with it differently
I have both type of depression
When alone cry a lot when people's are there tears in my eye
I always put a smile on so no one knows my fav song to cope with it is murder my feelings what I did and people make jokes about it and I laugh but at home I cry myself to sleep
😢don’t suffer alone man, there must be someone u can vent to, u can vent to me if you like❤ Hugs x
As the classic clown of the class, my friends don't even know that I'm struggling with depression cuz im always smiling😅
Its very tough to handle depression especially when you feel alone. Lost friends, relationship, job they comes again and again in mind. There is only one way to out from this if we make new friend, it can be anyone who also feeling like this. Depressive person can handle other depressive one. Try to make friend online start talking with each other on chat from anywhere any country or from different countries. I am also feeling depressed I also don't know what to do. This was my opinion may be by this comment someone initiate to start talking with me. I am also very alone. May be by talking we can make ways to be happy who knows the future nobody. In life everyone has different education different countries different languages when we start talking each other may be we can change each other's life. God help those who help themselves. 🙏
Going through the same... Lost friends.. relationship..job.. ended up feeling like a total failure .. people say I'm overthinking...when that's not the thing. Under medication n therapy but loneliness is a killer. I dread to wake up.
It's scary to be alone . Its scary to wake up... Suicidal thoughts creep in coz im tired of trying to be strong. It's tiring.. silence is deafening. Especially when people around u don't understand what anxiety n depression is n they just say oh stop overthinking n cheer up it's even more annoying.. coz no one understands
I've seen both of these versions in my ex partner. Alcohol and drugs certainly didn't help her but she wouldn't stop.
I just isolate myself. Drink Kratom. Wear headphones in public. Stay in my room at home.
The book "30 Days to Reduce Depression" by Harper Daniels has great mindfulness meditations.
I’m depressed, but I try not to show it because I don’t wanna cause problems. I pretend I’m happy and go about my day, but the second I’m alone in my room, I lay down, start overthinking and sometimes crying.
Bt body will not support after sometime stress cause anexiety in body hiding is good untill body .....
Both are true. The first is jsut whn i cant hold it in anymore. Which is most of the time, you could say.
