I am sick and tired of everyone around me saying “I understand, I’ve been depressed before” THAT’s THE DIFFERENCE. You’ve BEEN depressed. But it’s just not the CHRONIC depression, it’s the BPD, it’s the anxiety, it’s ALL OF THE ABOVE. Not a month or two of depression, it’s years and years of worsening pain and unbearable thoughts that NEVER stop. No one in my life fully understands, I mean that’s good, but on the other hand I have no one to talk to who will UNDERSTAND and not judge me
