Description
In deep depression,
We build walls, close off the outside world.
It becomes just too much to bear.
We scream and no one ever hears,
The screaming is fading in our brains.
We just want to go to sleep and never wake up.
Sometimes, we forget to shut all the windows.
A look out that window,
Brings a hope,
A will,
To
Survive.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have Genetic Depression and every day is a battle.
The Black hole is always with me.
The wonderful news is there are some Great Psychiatrist, With wonderful drugs.
(For real depression do not go to your family doctor. They do not understand or are not competed to handle this.)
This picture is for all of you who suffer from depression.
Thank you for looking, and I appreciate all the support the people here have given me.

Huge hugs. I have a love one who suffers from depression, so I too, in my own way live with it everyday. You are so right about family doctors, but I won't even go there... Wonderful image!
My mother was clinically depressed, as are several of my friends. Thank you for sending this out to them. Excellent image! hugs
Oh Sweetie, this is so touching and sad :( I'm sorry to hear that you are suffering so - this is a very difficult time of year and especially hard on people with clinical depression. Just keep hanging on and you'll work your way through it :) Very lovely artwork :)
{{{{LEAH}}}} I know how much you suffer and I also have a good friend with depression. It is the most debillitating illness, known to man. I also would like to echo the sentiment of your sister. You do bring a rainbow into so many of our lives and hope that we are there for you also. This is such a touching piece. Superb and emotive work. Excellent! Steve :o)
Such an ever so touching image Leah,, Your work has been one I have admired for a great long time. Since I arrived at Rosity in fact. So sorry to hear of your illness and pleased that you have found the help you need to beat this. Your renders are always a pleasure to view. Sometimes funny and definately superbly beautiful. You always seem to have the ability to capture that beauty in your own unique way. Prayers to you hon,,, Have a "Happy Thanksgiving" All the best ,, Huge Hugsssss Linda :-)
I don't think I have ever heard someone say something that made more sense than that. I know all too well about this and it has ruined more than one good thing in my life. Going through it again this month, as my husband is leaving us behind and moving on with his life. My heart goes out to you and to all the others that suffer from this. Depression is not a copout, but a disease that should be treated as such by tender gentle people.
Leah, I, too suffer from depression. It is a constant daily battle for the past 10 years. I cannot identify with the noose but with the distant look of her eyes and need for a change of scenery. Love and Hugs to you and her...
I want you to know, I feel your pain. As you know now, there is hope. Almost 35 years of my life were lost because of the Dark Storms. Yet the past six I've learned to live again due to the very reasons you have mentioned.
Wow another image that I see by you that fits how I feel right now. I have a new baby and a new life but my ex is trying to take our two kids from me completly and I have fallen into a deep depression some days it is almost too hard just to get out of bed. But my lil window is Ryan and our new baby boy. Without them I would be totaly lost. A wonderful image ((Hugs))
Excellent use of facial expression and body posture! The noose to the side is a little creepy but gets the point across. The face is really what captures me here, the way the head tilts and eyebrows and mouth slant down. Beautiful work!
Thank you.
Wow,this is art with substance...amazingly deep work,it really stikes a chord of emotion. Brilliant.
