I first noticed I was living with depression when......

When I was being bullied at school for acting weird

I realized I was living with depression when:

-I felt that nothing mattered.

-I stopped doing the things I love.

I hope a thread like this can help people recognize their own symptoms and encourage them to seek help. There is light at the end of the tunnel - and it is closer than it seems. Please get help, sweethearts. I love you all and you deserve to be happy.

And I always want to disappear, like completely. I regret that I had been born. And I always think about suicide, like which one's the fastest, or whereever I'll go after death. But I don't really intend to do it because of my belief. I only need to know if by any chance it's not sinful. I often feel stuck and nothing I can do to get out of there.

When I started to self harm and asked myself why I cry so much. When I started questioning everything and wondered what was the point.

I realized I had gained depressed weight and barely leaving my house
