Depression isn’t a disease

Its a disorder caused due to multiple external factors. But most notably, updating a status asking people to “wake up to how depression is real” every-time a celebrity dies from it is actually not that helpful in solving the issue. Really believe that you need to help? Message your friends who post depressing stuff every single day. Message the one that hasn’t posting anything in a year either. Make them feel wanted. Make everyone feel wanted. That’s how you deal with it.

Its an illness – but you exacerbate it by forcing your apathetic advice down everyone else’s inability.
