Some People With Depression

Some people with depression

- cannot get out of bed. Some can.

- cannot keep a job. Some can.

- cannot eat. Some can.

- cannot stop eating. Some can.

- self-harm. Some don’t.

- are suicidal. Some aren’t.

- take medication. Some don’t.

- have more bad days than others

- have more support systems than others

My point is that depression is not universal and while there is a general cluster of symptoms, it manifests differently in everyone. You can’t always spot depression on the street, in the grocery store, or at them gym. Depression doesn’t always jump out at you and let you know that there’s a person who is hurting deeply. Don’t contribute to stigmatization.

Again, my puppy joins me for some meditation. They always know when they're really needed, don't they?

Looking after yourself isn't selfish; it's necessary. Look after yourselves when you need to. This inspirational message was sent to me earlier by @omhomelife and I wanted to share. They're good words. #selfcare #selflove #nonotthatkind https://www.instagram.com/p/BvWkRrVBKfWvHmW7MJLIggzLEb3xhV-uhQZ0Mg0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=m53s9t7c0gcs

I received a good reminder about where the best place to live is earlier. Thought I'd share. #liveinthemoment #anxietyhelp #depressionhelp #mentalhealthadvocate https://www.instagram.com/p/CWdhDLDrxuc/?utm_medium=tumblr
