If you could describe Depression in 1-Word...​. What would you say?

[huskyowner234]

or in a sentence would be fine too.

Hopelessness

[huskyowner234 in reply to Hidden]

I appreciate your comment! I couldn't agree more with this description

I have to say also, though while we both felt hopeless... isn't interesting still to see how we kept our lives going during those days? How we still woke up and did our daily tasks.

Those actions in itself prove to ourselves that we are here to stay & we are strong.

[Hidden in reply to huskyowner234]

It is interesting. I remember days after my sister died that I couldn’t even get on a computer without feeling panicky. I guess we hold onto hopes of things getting better and that is what keeps us going.

Depression cannot be described in one word ,ur question is vague.

Spiderweb-no matter what you do, it seems to make it worse. Or at least it doesn’t make it better.

This is definitely one of those things that are impossible to describe in just one word

I would say grinding as it feels like its grinding you down slowly but surely.

One word to describe Depression/ Bi-Polar/Mixed Personality Disorder/PTSD is......... exhausting​!!!

I feel so bad for anyone who has had to live with any of these terrible illnesses/conditions, that the only other word I feel describes it is UNFAIR!!!!

Let's hope we can all help each other to change those negative words, to positives. Like making new friends x 🤗

[Tired300]

Blind!!!! All of us are sat here in similar situations, thinking of words to type onto our smartphones, yet why are we all sat alone??

Blind may not be the correct word, maybe silly!! ??

Why do we not realize that we do have people, have hope??

Blind to the fact that if we all got together, then maybe as a group, we might all just have what we've all been looking for !?!

Friends, hope, understanding, decent, non judgmental conversations with others who just want the exact same thing as we all do !!!

Having a fun life!!! In whatever way that suits the individual, without being judged by others.........The 'normal ' people......Who ever they are, but yet still to this day still continue to make people's lives a misery.

Sorry no offence to all the lovely understanding, wonderful people who help daily x Many thanks x

Think actually I may need some help myself x

So again apologies if I've upset anyone x

Think I'm​ going to take a step back for a bit x Get used to the site first x Thanks x

Looking forward to hearing from anyone else who has been living similar​ lives who can help x x 🤗
