Depression Is Not A Joke

"I am afraid to tell because others might say that I am just overacting"

"I am just a useless person in this world. It's better to be away in this world."

"No one understands my feeling. I am alone in this battle. I am alone and no one is ready to listen."

These are just a few thoughts of those people who have experienced being depressed. Being in that situation is never been easy and will never be. If no one ever listens to them, they will end up taking their life.

Just 6 days ago, as I was browsing my Facebook page, I saw a post from my batchmates saying that they can't believe that "J" (the initial of her name) had committed suicide. While reading the comments, there was someone who said that "J" was still very energetic before the day she ended her life. She also can't believe that it actually happened because they have known "J" as a positive and strong person.

These are the post that she had on Facebook before the day she left this world:

Memories are made to let you remember all the things you have made during your stay here on earth.

Gonna miss those memories with folks, super busy niyo na Kase eh...miss y'all

In God's hands, everything will be fine. Amen.

Many were saddened at that sudden happening especially those who were dormmates of "J". And many also said that she shouldn't have done that act because she had kids that depended on her.


Depression is not easy. Sometimes those who undergo this kind of situation chose not to open up to others because they think that others might judge them. Others might just say that they are overacting but the truth is, there are too many heavy loads in their hearts already. Sometimes they are afraid to open up because they are afraid that no one will listen to their dramas in life. They are afraid that no one will listen to what they are going to say. Sometimes they feel like they are alone in their battles. They feel like no one is there when things go wrong.

To those who have been through it right now, please choose to talk to God if you can't open it up to anybody. God will always be willing to listen to you and will never leave you in despair. He will enlighten your mind and heart and He will lead you to the right path.

I am advising this because I was once there. I was once in a situation where I almost end up my life because I feel like I am only a burden to my family. During that time, I was so ashamed of my family for the mistake that I did and I thought that ending my life was the only solution but thank God, He didn't let me commit that big sin. He opened my eyes and let me realize that there are many reasons why I shouldn't end my life. He also let me realize that one mistake can't be solved by making another one. Thank God for guiding me that time because if I chose the other way around, I would not be here today and I would not know how beautiful it is to be able to live until today.

In God, everything will be okay.


Closing Thoughts

Life is full of trials and hardships but always know that those are not permanent. After those downtimes, you can be able to see the light again so choose to fight. Someday as you look back on that downtimes, you will be prouder of yourself for not giving up. You may experience many depressing times, anxiety, and almost give but when you see that you are still standing firm at the moment, you will say to yourself, that "yes I made it" because you overcome all those.

Good things pointed out by your writing. Sometimes people make it funny while another one is in depression. These can cause death of the victim. We should support those who are in depression.

Yes depression is not a joke but we do not take it serious. I don't know why.in this condition i will recommend that we should listen to that person or if we are facing it we should share.recently a university student commit suside he was intelligent and talented.but after his death they found a last letter written by that guy. Actually he was suffering from depression he wrote i am looser i can't do anything i have no one to listen me in this world i am going to my mom.as her mom was died.it was too awefull to read his writing.

Mahirap talaga kalabanin ang depression sis. And mostly, pag hindi na kaya talagang suicide ang siyang palaging nasaisip. But all I can say is that, once na makaranas ka ng depression mas mabuti pang eshare sa kaibigan or sa taong malapit sayo. Lahat ng problema may solution at higit sa lahat, have faith in God because through to Him nothing is impossible 🙏

Ako sis never ata akong nagisip na patayin self ko kahit na feeling ko is pagod na pagod ako may times na naiiyak nalang ako sa tabi pero yung isipin na patayin ang sarili ki naiisip ko kung ano magiging itsura ko. Ang weird noh? Noon yunv parang nadepress ako,iyak ako ng iyak tapos parang naisip ko na yun mawlaa nalang tapos nung naisip ko anong aggamitin kong para mawala sa mundo biglang nag sink in sakin kung ano magiging itsura ko kapag ginawa ko yun.😂😅 Kaya every time na pakiramdam ko ang bigat ng pakiramdam ko nanonood nalang ako ng drama tapos hahayaan ko na umagos luha ko.

It's too bad that J just ended her life even when she had kids depending on her. The thing with depression is that it's very hard to recognize and it's almost impossible to know when a person is passing through it.

Maximum attention to our mental should be practiced because those overweighing thoughts have the capacity to push to commit. Suicide is never a remedy to depression. We should be strong no matter what, and face the issue. Everything we are passing through today have been encountered by many and they scale through. I feel for the lady that committed suicide leaving her daughter behind, she must have felt alot of pain in her depression wing

Recently just a few weeks ago, a well known football player in my area did suicide and in that evening only I saw him chatting happily with his friends, he had a wife and new born kids. I felt sad as well as angry as those kids lost their only shade of hope. Suicide may kill your problems but it gives rise to problems to your loved ones. I can't imagine the load and suffering her wife is getting now. If anybody ever wants to talk and feel depressed just approach people whom you know 5 will judge you but 3 of them will ignore you but 2 of them will help you. And it's enough help to get back you in track.
