Are We All Just Always Depressed?

Are we all just always depressed? Depressed about something random in our lives and the many different things that we are experiencing. I’ve been falling in and out of depression in my opinion. One minute I could be good and then someone brings something up, then I am down. I am depressed at times and people will never know only cause certain times my mind is somewhere else. People shouldn’t know only because I am a private person and I don’t need to share everything with social media. At times I find myself so lost in my job or hobbies that I forget that I was feeling a particular type of way earlier in the day.

Two of my friends had mentioned to me that they started feeling depressed after a particular situation in their lives. It happens but I think if you’re able to talk to someone about it, find a hobby and vent your frustration then you can never truly move past it. People think going to see a therapist is admitting defeat but in reality you are saving yourself. You are preventing yourself from digging a deeper hole that you would eventually get lost in. Sometimes we don’t feel comfortable talking to the people around us, so we talk to a neutral person who knows nothing about us. This always gives you a better perspective on situations going on in your life.

Sometimes I suffer from anxiety but no one knows that unless I tell them that. People think that I am the strongest person in the world because of all the things I’ve been through. Nope. I am strong in my own way for the people that need me the most. I am a completely broken human being with flaws, that suffers anxiety attacks and deals with depression by playing airsoft. I am weird but I am just trying to cope with the random situations in my life and move past them.
