Keepin' It Classy

“When I first told my mom about my depression, she yelled at me. She told me I had no right to be depressed. She screamed that I had everything most people wanted. And I just cried back that I didn’t want this, I didn’t understand it. She never believed I was depressed because I could never explain to her why. I couldn’t find the words to tell her that everytime I look in the mirror I want to cry. I couldn’t tell her that everytime someone tells me “I love you” I wait for the “but”. I couldn’t tell her that no matter how hard I try, I just feel empty. So we faught for hours over my “depression”. Her constant screaming that I just wanted attention and wanted sympathy began to carve itself in my skin. She watched me cry and cry because I didn’t know what else to do. That was the day I realized when people ask you what’s wrong, they don’t really care for the real answer.”

“How was it possible to miss something you no longer wanted?”

“It’s important to realize you can miss something, but not want it back.”
