Depression cannot be ignored

The sounds of life reach your ears with a touch of melancholy; a feeling of sadness that defies description. You are lying in bed, staring vacantly ahead, your mind in turmoil as negative thoughts of varying degrees flood your mind. Small matters of the past beleaguer your mind at full force. Matters that before were not a big deal assume prodigious proportions as they churn in your mind and you start feeling guilty about the least things that may have happened in the past; things that would normally be rather insignificant.

This in turn is resulting in further negative thoughts taking residence in your already troubled mind and you start feeling like the worst person right here in this world. You don't deserve to live; life is meant for good people; you are bad, your mind keeps saying to you. Things are the way they are because of you.
