Functional depression is real. You work, joke around, you show kindness, take care of people around you. But mentally you're drowning in your own thoughts but still smiling and nobody knows it
Nobody prepares you for the fact that you will go through some of the most heart shattering experiences of your life and are still expected to show up for work. Take care of yourself. Pay your bills. Meet your goals. Just carry on… it’s awful
i think my 🚩 is that, I never know how to talk about my feelings. I talk to myself in my head a lot about how I feel & I explain it so well, but getting it to actually come out my mouth is so hard.
