Depression Feels Like Quotes

“I dont want anybody to understand what my depression feels like because in order to understand it you have to have been there, and I dont want anybody else to go.”
— David Feherty —

“Depression feels a bit like that, it creeps in on you and settles, until you think it'll never lift, but in time it always does. That's why it's so tragic if people don't reach out to anyone when they feel low, because if they do, the mist will usually lift in the end.”

— Sita Brahmachari

“If you are reading this book and you feel that way too then you are not alone. I understand how you feel. I think that anyone who has suffered from even mild depression understands how it feels. Yet we forget that others understand our suffering. We withdraw, isolate or shut down completely. We lose ourselves in our selves, and in the illness.
It doesn't have to be that way. If we connect with even one other human being who understands, we take one step out of the illness. Life is about connection. There is nothing else. Depression is the opposite; it is an illness defined by alienation. So I offer this book by way of connection. I offer it, too, as a source of hope. I hope that by sharing what I was like, what happened and what I am like now, that it may bring someone else comfort.”

— Sally Brampton

“Sometimes it feels like we're all living in a Prozac nation. The United States of Depression.”

— Elizabeth Wurtzel

“Mild depression is a gradual and sometimes permanent thing that undermines people the way rust weakens iron. It is too much grief at too slight a cause, pain that takes over from the other emotions and crowds them out. Such depression takes up bodily occupancy in the eyelids and in the muscles that keep the spine erect. It hurts your heart and lungs, making the contraction of involuntary muscles harder than it needs to be. Like physical pain that becomes chronic, it is miserable not so much because it is intolerable in the moment as because it is intolerable to have known it in the moments gone and to look forward only to knowing it in the moments to come. The present tense of mild depression envisages no alleviation because it feels like knowledge.”

— Andrew Solomon

“Depression means self-loathing, self-disgust, and the kind of emotional numbness that feels like psychic death.”

— William Deresiewicz

“I don't want anybody to understand what my depression feels like because in order to understand it you have to have been there, and I don't want anybody else to go.”

— David Feherty

“I can only speak from my own experience, and I would say that the depression I experienced feels like a chemical change. When it came over me, when it comes over me, it feels like it's coming over me like a flu.”

— Sarah Silverman
