Hello guys,

i hope you are doing great,
i was inspired today to write a small poem..


People think depression is sadness.
People think depression is crying.
People think depression is dressing in black.

BUT people are WRONG.

Depression is the constant feeling of feeling numb.

Being numb to emotions, being numb to life.

You wake up in the morning, just to go back to bed again ...

And along with this August - full moon that describes somehow in my opinion that there is still bright hope despite the fact that the darkness is overwhelming, this exquisite song of Pink Floyd, Comfortably numb..

Pink Floyd - Comfortably numb

P.S For this is a feeling or more accurately an emotional state that i have not really felt,
but i am trying to understand, because many loved ones and people in general around me suffer from it.

Being numb means that sometimes you don't live in your own body and mind and you don't feel like you have the energy to do so either.
