“...Depression is not sobbing and crying and giving vent, it is plain and simple reduction of feeling...People who keep stiff upper lips find that it's damn hard to smile.”
“Depression is the inability to construct a future”
“You know it ain't easy
For these thoughts here to leave me
There's no words to describe it
In French or in English
Well, diamonds they fade
And flowers they bloom
And I'm telling you
These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
They've been knockin' me out lately
Whenever you come around me
These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
I keep thinking in a moment that
Time will take them away
But these feelings won't go away.”
“The greater your capacity to love, the greater your capacity to feel the pain.”
"Only I know my true struggle, pain, misery, suffering, lovesickness. Nobody else knows what kind of pain that is that eats inside of you daily. The only time you don't think about them is when your sleeping and that's when you're not thinking about it there also."
