Yue Moon: Just a little piece on depression. The first version was made out to be a he but I figured it would make more sense if it was made out to be a she. Don't ask why...I suppose I'm just wierd like that ^^;

There is this dark creature that goes in and out of homes, dressed in black, a hood pulled closely over her head, shrouding her face in darkness. If and when she manages to seep into your life, your bones will go numb as her evil slowly spreads to your heart, freezing it solid. Clouding your vision, she makes you do things you'd never dream of in your right state of mind. Thriving on your despair and loneliness, she slowly begins taking over. Think of love and hope and she'll laugh in your face, belittling you as she watches you shed countless tears, thinking there's no where to run. You'll end up sleeping more and more, trying to escape into the dream world, only to find out that she's able to reach you there as well. And when morning comes by, she makes it harder and harder for you to think of a reason to drag yourself out of bed and move on with your life. Because you see, that's what Depression is.

It's the worm eating away at your heart and soul, leaving tiny holes here and there. It's the leaches on your back, the hollow feeling inside that causes you to think deadly thoughts…suicidal thoughts. It's that feeling that nothing can be right again; that everything is lost so just give up and don't even think of trying to pull free. It's the result of misery and pain, a type of a coma, except that you're awake and about. Like you're dead, except you're not.

Yue Moon: Review and tell me what you think ^_^; Sankyo!
