Quote 6: I just want to be normal. I have no idea what that is, but I keep working towards some imaginary goal.
Quote 5: Life was getting so hard. Things were getting more and more gray. I wanted to give up. But for some reason I didn’t.
Quote 4: I used to struggle to see my progress because I was so attached to my depression. But my eyes are finally opening and it feels really nice.
Quote 3: My depression is exhausting. I feel like I’ve used up all of my energy before I even get in the shower 😩
Quote 2: My depression used to make me sad. Now it just makes me angry. Just because it looks different to you, doesn’t mean it’s different to me.
