Which Side Is me Wich Side Is Depression?

I have had problems with depression since I was a child as well, as I got older it became fairly easy to gauge what was going on by my mood. Sometimes I did not want to go out because I like staying home, I am somewhat a homebody, but then there were days when I needed to gout but I found myself trying to find any excuse not to go out. I guess those days can also meld together sometimes lol I know it was confusing sometimes none the less.

Left = You
Right = Depression
Center = Uhhh.... Confused

Dear Jenna....i have a long thing for you...gonna come bak and tell you...wait up...i think i can help

I've been depressed for pretty much most of my life too. i am now 22. I'm not much of a social person (guess people are scared of being around me. Or is it me being scared of people?). i have NO friends. I used to cut myself (haven't in a year, but it's getting so hard not to!) For the last 2 months everything in my life has been so dark and confusing. I have no idea which side is me and which side is depression. I don't (can't) talk to people - they only hear what they wanna hear (that's if they listen at all)...

The way I see it Depression is a tool. Like Anger I use depression to deal with certain things like the way my life's goin...things are gettin hard and I feed off of the depression and the depression cause's Anger and the anger fuels the need to do something about it and after that things change. But if I had to choose a side for depression and me..I would have to say that it would be my left side cause my anger is the right side and i'm stuck in the middle...but it's not too bad bein in the middle
