Depression is not "sadness."
It is missing your friends 
because  you can't handle the 
thought of leaving your house.
It's the strong need for isolation 
with the heartache of being lonely.
It's losing the job you love for missing too much work because exhaustion took over preventing you from getting out of bed.
It's not wanting to do the things you 
love because you have been 
stripped of the ability to feel joy.
It's the desire to go to sleep and 
not wake up because sleep is 
the only time you are at peace.
Depression is so much 
more than sadness. Depression is not "sadness." It is missing your friends because you can't handle the thought of leaving your house.
