How I describe my depression, for me, I'm at a big family gathering, and I am in the middle of the gathering, but I feel like I'm on the outside looking in.

You know the scene in the never ending story where artax gets in the sludge and it slowly devours him.... It's alot like that

I think of my depression as a rain cloud that follows me. And when it gets really bad the water builds up and it feels like I’m drowning, other days it just being there makes me feel down or sad. It’s always there and never goes away but some days it just rains harder than others. I hope this helps!
