I’ve had depression for a long time probably as a child and was never diagnosed because mental health doesn’t exist in my culture and depression is for those who have lost their mind. Since I was a child, I couldn’t imagine what my future looked like because I wasn’t sure if I would be alive. Like it’s hard to imagine me being older, happier, in a healthy relationship. And if I live in the “moment” I jus think of how shitty my life is at the moment. So it doesn’t help so how am I supposed to “heal” or “move forward” without knowing anything.
