I'd love to hear people's descriptions of their own depression in one sentence?

[BluesRunTheGame]

For me? The emptiest of feelings, like living in a post-apocalyptic world where you're the only one left alive and you couldn't care less.

 

[Eire1992]

Existing for the sake of existing.

 

[deepinlimbo]

Continual discomfort and paranoia

 

[StringPuppet]

For me it's kind of like being stranded in the middle of an ocean with no land in sight, the only thing you can do is wait to drown.

 

[SelmaJezkova10]

Tomorrow will be a better day.

 

[FarAcrossTheWater]

There is only one answer.

 

[Wrennie]

Holding out because there are no other options available to me - I am a prisoner of my rapidly deteriorating body, my warped mind, and the authoritarian society that has remorselessly condemned me to lead a "life" in this defective meat vessel from which I'm granted no alleviation of the physical & mental suffering that inherently accompanies my inhabitation of it.

 

[alwaysSuffering]

Alone, disconnected, nowhere where I belong, emptiness, meaningless, hopeless.

 

[Salvation_]

An uphill battle that can't be won.

 

[LONE WOLF.]

A prisoner of the past!

 

[lost.ghost]

existing but not living

 

[Rayzieka]

a constant state of fear and misery.
yes I'm quoting a song

 

[Journeytoletgo]

Looking for the worse in everything, feeling low in value, in a room full of people however no connection (loneliness), your will to live being cannibalized

 

[motel rooms]

Caused by unresolvable trauma.

 

[ClownMe]

a real asshole.

 

[Arvinneedstodie]

I'm stuck on a sunken boat that sank 8 years ago, the deeper it sinks, the harder it is for me to escape, so I sink.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

I'm a pathetic, soulless manchild who would rather die than expend a drop of effort into anything that will benefit my well-being because my own self is my cruelest abuser and he deserves every bit of suffering he gets; I hate him so much that I just have to kill him and he's probably thinking the same.

 

[PartlyHuman]

There is no point in trying, I fail everything I start.

 

[Amumu]

Horrible genes, horrible childhood and horrible teenage years, horrible failures in college

 

[RedHarlequin]

Nothing feels good, nothing feels good, there's something eating me from inside.

 

[lofticries]

constantly swimming through a sea of grey with no land in sight.

 

[nightnightnitrite]

In a life boat lost in a sea of dark blue water, hoping to find land or another boat for help but I know that I will never see either.

 

[UseItOrLoseIt]

My loneliness is killing me, but I must confess I still believe (still believe).

 

[Quiet Desperation]

Decades of unending torment, misunderstanding, ridicule, betrayal, isolation, and loneliness so severe that shaving is a major life accomplishment.

 

[Symbiote]

I'm not bipolar, life is, don't put that evil on me doc.

 

[Meditation guide]

If I ever run out of interesting distractions I'm in trouble.

 

[MindFog]

Chronic. Progressive. Fatal.

 

[fly away]

Already dead inside for years….just waiting for someone to care and dispose of my empty shell.

 

[Hurt]

A tiring daily torture.

 

[S like Siren]

A Curse.
