Depression can show up in different ways, sadness, numbness, irritability, or feeling empty. It’s not the same for everyone, and that’s okay. For me, depression often feels like a heavy fog that dulls everything. How do you experience it?

For me it's starts as a crushing sadness that won't stop, then it fades into a numbness that essentially makes the world feel bleak and pointless. Because it's dysthymia it tends to last for a long time and not fade away, so the numbness is often the worst part.

For me its not liking things I once did. Pain and suicidal thoughts. :(
