depression is........

Location

Depression is being tired constantly, when you're never able to sleep
Depression is pity, when you hate other's success
Depression is longing for more, when you never acknowledge what life does offer
Depression is the feeling of self-hatred, when the arrogance is concurrently overwhelming
Depression is the repugnance of emotional discomfort, when a sanctuary for physical affliction exists
Depression is loathing at your own desire, when the ones around you prosper
Depression is perfectionism, when you could care less about anything else, not even yourself
Depression is the rock that you choose to constantly trip over, when all you have to do is move around it...
Depression is the ultimate cost of denial, when the truth is too much to handle

so stop feeling sorry for yourself and get help
