Depression

Oh, God I'm depressed. This must be one of the lowest times in my life. It's been a long time since I've been this down, the last was when I was in high school and my family lost, well... everything.

I think depression is rightfully named so, because it applies an unseen weight on your body. You feel it over your head, like a dark cloud, heavy and ominous. You feel it in your eyes, when the rain finally pours. You feel it on your chest, a steady pressure, pushing into your very depths, stealing the breath from your lungs. Your heart races, ironically to steady the body as it waits to fight or flee.

Fight or flee.
