My Struggle With Depression Lately
Lately I have fought so hard to overcome depression due to pressing situation and demanding days, there are days it feels so lonely and I get overwhelmed by the things that's happening around me. There are days I would wake up and feel there is nothing to live for, yes I have felt that even the past week.
I never knew how bad life could be till all these things set in, you know a guy in his late 20s trying to figure out life and how and what it means. I have tried to measure up something's but at some point it feels nothing is adding up and this is where it gets really hard, I have lost touch of reality at some point and most time I question my existence.
These overwhelming situation has kept me right away from the light and the only thing my mind could picture was the darkness around me and I was blinded over light and how well I could live through this pains, nothing really made sense to me as much as it should because I have pulled walls down just to get up like my peers.
Also, what has really added to this depression is when I would put in my 100 and still won't see a single output, this is where the real band is played on my head and sometimes I feel like maybe I am not just doing enough or maybe I am not destined to live this stage of life but then how come my peers are able to scale up effortlessly? This question has been ringing so hard.
I just don't know if life is making sense to others and at the same time deal with others badly because right now I am at the odd side and nothing makes much sense to me anymore and I wish I could get the encouragement to stop living in pains.
It all started from a little sad day and till now I am still trying to figure out why others are happy and others are sad, what is really the code to happiness? I know you might think I am not contented with the little wins but no, I am at the same time I am tired of the status quo and I wish everything makes sense at the end. When I will exchange this dark heart for a joyous smile and peaceful mind.
I don't think there is one meaning of life. If you value the fact that your life must have a meaning - and it seems to me that you do - then give it one! It is up to you. Were you born to do a good job? Or to be a good father? Or to save animals? Or to explain the world to others? Or to write beautiful poems? Or invent things? Or helping people? I'm sure it's not depression that's meant for you... ;-))
