      For me it's a mix of things from feeling sad, to feeling like I'm alone, to feeling like I have no one to confide in, to not finding pleasure in things. Even yesterday, I felt this way because my mom always tells my grandma everything I do. DM me if you feel like it.

      Depression sucks when you feel so low you don't want to do anything or speak to anyone. I get depressed about many things, my life, my home, my weight. šŸ˜„ But I do eventually come out of it. I think the anxiety is worse that the depression. I have had depression for 10 years. The meds make me feel numb, no feelings, no emotion.

        @FibroWarriorWoman I also get depressed about my fibro. I get depressed about my anxiety and anxious about my depression so that is an endless cycle that I've been in for 10 years.

      Anhedonia or lack of experiencing pleasure in things. It's really bad when I'm not doing well and I need to distract myself with something but there's nothing I want to do, everything seems pointless - even if I normally enjoy that activity. It feels hollow, just going through the motions.

The worst parts about depression, as described by individuals experiencing it, include a total fear of abandonment, shutting oneself in their room and refusing to come out, feeling completely numb and unable to feel things, having no motivation and fearing failure, being called lazy and gross because they can't bring themselves to do what everyone expects from them, feeling everything and then feeling numb, and not knowing what to do with themselves. Other descriptions include feeling like they're already dead inside, having hard disassociation, zoning out for long periods of time, overthinking, loss of appetite, listlessness, and knowing what may help but being too overwhelmed with the chance of it failing and/or lack of motivation/energy.
