Depression is a state of low mood and aversion to activity that can affect a person's thoughts, behavior, feelings and sense of well-being.[1][2] People with a depressed mood can feel sad, anxious, empty, hopeless, helpless, worthless, guilty, irritable, ashamed or restless. They may lose interest in activities that were once pleasurable, experience loss of appetite or overeating, have problems concentrating, remembering details or making decisions, and may contemplate, attempt or commit suicide. Insomnia, excessive sleeping, fatigue, aches, pains, digestive problems or reduced energy may also be present.

People who suffer from depression go through this every single day!
Unfortunately society is still closed-minded about depression, but keep in mind that depression is a psychological disorder and like all mental disorders, is an illness.
We, as a community should give hope, love and respect to people with depression, so they could start fighting harder and eventually win their "demons"!
This goes out to all people who suffer from depression: You are strong and you can get through this, you are not alone....Please if you have suicidal thoughts, contact someone that could help or visit a professional. Don't struggle with depression by yourself!
