Depression Quotes

Depression is something that has always figured in my life but now I’m dealing with it. I wish I’d done this years ago because it’s been really helpful Picture Quote #1

We may feel genuinely concerned about world conditions, though such a concern should drive us into action and not into a depression Picture Quote #1

One of the things that often gets lost in discussions of depression is that you know it’s ridiculous. You know it’s ridiculous while you’re experiencing it. You know that most people manage to listen to their messages, and eat lunch, and organise themselves to take a shower and go out the front door, and that it’s not a big deal. And yet you are nonetheless in its grip and you are unable to figure out any way around it Picture Quote #1

I found myself losing interest in almost everything, I didn’t want to do any of the things I had previously wanted to do and I didn’t know why. Everything there was to do seemed like too much work. The opposite of depression is not happiness, but vitality, and it was vitality that seemed to seep away from me in that moment Picture Quote #1

I know of people who don’t believe it, but depression is an illness, but unlike, say, a broken leg, you don’t know when it’ll get better Picture Quote #1

Telling someone with depression to pull themselves together is about as useful as telling someone with cancer to just stop having cancer Picture Quote #1

Acting might bring on emotional exhaustion, but writing tired your brains out. Writing led to depression and insomnia and walking around all day with a haggard look Picture Quote #1

Never once, during any of my bouts of depression, had I been inclined or able to pick up a telephone and ask a friend for help. It wasn’t in me Picture Quote #1

When you study postpartum depression, there is a very clear understanding that in communities where you see more support, there is less depression Picture Quote #1

Homosexuals die decades younger than heterosexuals, from a host of maladies. They suffer mental problems ranging from depression to psychosis, and have suicide rates many times that of heterosexuals Picture Quote #1

Yes, I suffer terribly from depression. I have to work at being happy, it’s not my natural instinct. My natural instinct is, if something wonderful happens, to throw water in my own face Picture Quote #1

In all of my looking at happiness, one thing I noticed right away is that the opposite of happiness isn’t unhappiness or even depression, it’s anxiety. It is something that can constantly block our happiness, or our chance to reach that sort of meditative state in our work or our home lives Picture Quote #1

Mother had to support herself at age 18 because it was during the depression and when my grandfather lost the farm and there was no place for her; she worked as an assistant to a maid Picture Quote #1

I suppose I’m interested in sorrow, which is very different from depression or despair. Sorrow is continuous with the world; it allows for creativity Picture Quote #1

I wish I had never got manic depression. When I was in junior high, I didn’t know what was the matter with me. It was as if I’d died or something. Now that I go to a clinic and get the right kind of medicine, I am not as depressed as I used to be Picture Quote #1

Here is the tragedy: when you are the victim of depression, not only do you feel utterly helpless and abandoned by the world, you also know that very few people can understand, or even begin to believe, that life can be this painful Picture Quote #1

Depression is something that doesn’t just go away. It’s just... there and you deal with it. It’s like... malaria or something. Maybe it won’t be cured, but you’ve got to take the medication you’re prescribed, and you stay out of situations that are going to trigger it Picture Quote #1

There’s been moments of depression in my life, moments when I was in situations that I thought I wouldn’t be able to get out of Picture Quote #1

I went from being very popular and the head of the clique in the sixth grade to having, like, kid depression in the seventh grade. Not leaving the house. Not looking people in the eye... My body made me feel bad at everything Picture Quote #1

Until you’ve had depression I don’t think you’re qualified to talk about it Picture Quote #1

If you don’t think your anxiety, depression, sadness and stress impact your physical health, think again. All of these emotions trigger chemical reactions in your body, which can lead to inflammation and a weakened immune system. Learn how to cope, sweet friend. There will always be dark days Picture Quote #1

A person with power has control of their emotions. A person with power can stop fear, stop depression, or they can augment a positive emotion Picture Quote #1

Within the human frequency of perception, what you see is what you get. I would classify the bottom of the band as severe unhappiness, depression and alimentation Picture Quote #1

When you look at a person, any person, everyone has a story. Everyone has gone through something that has changed their life. Anxiety, depression and panic attacks are not signs of weakness. They are signs of trying to remain strong for way too long Picture Quote #1

Perhaps the saddest irony of depression is that suicide happens when the patient gets a little better and can again function sufficiently Picture Quote #1

If we admit our depression openly and freely, those around us get from it an experience of freedom rather than the depression itself Picture Quote #1

Paradoxically, I have found peace because I have always been dissatisfied. My moments of depression and despair turn out to be renewals, new beginnings. If I were once to settle down and be satisfied with the surface of life, with its divisions and its cliches, it would be time to call in the undertaker... So, then, this dissatisfaction which sometimes used to worry me and has certainly, I know, worried others, has helped me in fact to move freely and even gaily with the stream of life Picture Quote #1

America is a land of big dreamers and big hopes. It is this hope that has sustained us through revolution and civil war, depression and world war, a struggle for civil and social rights and the brink of nuclear crisis. And it is because our dreamers dreamed that we have emerged from each challenge more united, more prosperous, and more admired than before Picture Quote #1

You don’t think in depression that you’ve put on a gray veil and are seeing the world through the haze of a bad mood. You think that the veil has been taken away, the veil of happiness, and that now you’re seeing truly Picture Quote #1

To me the early childhood story is an ecumenical one. You take poverty seriously. You take seriously maternal depression. You take seriously children under stress and you take seriously the effects of extended hours participation in poor quality care. Those are the facts I begin with Picture Quote #1
