I have been feeling for years depression and I have suppressed it so much. I have always told just cheer up. Don’t let it get you down. Sometimes I have no control over it so much of the time. It’s so frustrating. Don’t people think I want to be happy? Is it people just don’t understand or is it the easy way for people to act as they care?  I feel from the world it’s okay for females to be sad and depressed, but if you are a guy it’s you better pick yourself back up.
