"I grew up a normal person, and I don't have any problems. I've always been that positive guy, you know. Everyone always saw me smiling and I was always looking at the good things ahead of me. You can ask everyone who knows me… I can guarantee you that they will say the same thing.
…But I am tired of pretending nothing is wrong anymore.
Nothing has been right for a long… Long time.
However, I don't believe it's necessary that anyone else should see it, so I just keep… Smiling."

A grim post, but also a nice change from all the stuff I've been posting recently.
I think most people fail to realize that the real people suffering from depression are those who keep it hidden and locked away from others. And to be fair, these kinds of people are also the most resilient (and respectable, honestly), because they manage to keep their problems out of sight while managing to appear strong and confident in front of others.
Problem is, when they've bottled up their issues for so long, their proverbial shields are more likely to crack… And break completely.
Nonetheless, they go about their lives as if nothing is wrong, still trudging forward to see another day, hoping to eventually escape the troubles that ail them.
