I have been living with depression for .....[share how long]
11 years.
Id say its been about 4 years, but I feel as though some traces of depression were present beforehand. However, there was a significant event that happened about 4 years ago which seemed to trigger my bottled-up thoughts and feelings from before to become more apparent in my mind.
Ive made a lot of good friends since then, and theyve certainly made it much easier to live with depression, although it never really goes away so to speak.

I thank you, though pitty will never do anything but weaken and insult me, I appreciate your prayer. It takes a lot of work to manage and heal, a bit of spiritual aid would be nice.
About 10 years I guess. So almost half of my life.
Im 38. I remember disliking myself even as a child. It didnt feel like depression. Ive just always been kinda disappointed in myself.
