like me doing math right now

It looks like the cover of Pink Floyd The Wall (the movie)

People always say my head is in the clouds. Little do they know those clouds are black and heavy with storms.

Sadly beautiful.

Powerful image!

once depression grabs hold of you...

Beauty & strong scare.

Everyday slowly chipping you away…

I can relate to this. This is a great representation of the feeling of falling, helpless, as the agony pulls you in and down. As you submit, because you're too weak from trying to be strong.

at least he has family to help him put him back together

I, too, wear the masks. I just don't trust anyone enough to confide in them. They will just hurt me, like everyone/everything else. At times tho it almost seems more exhausting to hide then it would be to just express the overwhelming fear, pain and anger that is felt.

This one hit me pretty hard

So damn familiar...

This looked so depressing I feel depressed too...

All too familiar feeling :(

emptiness

This looks just like depression combined with anxiety. I know this pose all too well.

I read it "Evanescence" instead of only "Evanesce"

Your mind becomes your enemy :(

There's a black dog on my shoulder again. Licking my neck and saying she's my friend. Solitude the one thing that I really miss. Guess my life is a compromise. ♬♪

Sadly true

I relate strongly to this. After I've driven myself to exhaustion with my OCD and depression and finally pass out on my bed tired from trying to fight it.

Promising!

Bleeding out as you put on mask after mask

This one made me tear up a little

This is honestly because and touching

I understand

F.I.N.E. = F@#$ed Up, Insecure, Neurotic & Emotional

This is beautiful and hits home

Yes empty

Apt: demon clawing through the mind while the subject is immobile

Heartbreakingly beautiful

Sometimes it feels that it is the only escape....

This is amazing. You really capture the essence that is depression

alone in the dark

And it keeps on chewing ...

To be honest. This one precisely describes how I felt through some phases on particularly sensitive days. Excessive guilt is so.... Terrible.

Seeing the world through a veil.

Accurate

You feel shattered completely

I can relate to most of these images. I have my depression mostly under control these days. When it comes now, it is like this, a brain cloud that I can feel the darkness gathering and engulfing me. An improvement from the animal clawing desperation of past days.

Nothing like waking up with that cold dread feeling.

"Nothing kills a man faster than his own head"

That face on the right, disappearing

You lose who you are...

"Hello darkness my old friend"

You just want to make it stop....anything to make it stop.

"Mommy, why do you listen to sad music most of the time"

Reminds me of a Van Gough

i love this so much oh my god

you're trying, you're reaching to get out, but it just keeps pulling you back into the pit.

Great

There are so many pictures, and so many people commenting on them. I think more people suffer from mental illnesses/disorders than don't. We are the majority. Let's stick together and support each other.

They all called me crazy....but they didn't know the constraints and horrors of my own mind.

This

This is kind of like mine too. Mine had a name, Charlie.

Great

no matter how beautiful life is, you're still trapped in there.
