The walls should be shaking too

Is it supposed to show "feel like drowning all while feeling trapped"?

I think individuals probably experience depression in different ways... wrote to the artist, explain your personal experiences and then maybe they will be able to depict it to your satisfaction

From my own experience with it, I would say this gets it about as right as it can be in a black and white picture, but everyone experiences depression differently. If I were to describe a picture that would embody depression in this format, I would say a house with the outside walls cracking and starting to fall off with part of the foundation falling out, and a large hole in the heart with tears running down it for the sadness, and blood running down it for the piercing pain in your soul. Using the two colors for liquid drops could symbolize that, and the hole in the center could be indicating the hole in your life it makes.

Don't think this describes depression for me personally. To me, depression feels like I've gone to the depths of despair. A melting house doesn't really describe that feeling.

What does the house look like if you have both anxiety and depression?

I had deprisiion but overcame it since i told my mom and dad

For me depression can feel like trying to walk through mud - this made me see that. Like being trapped in a house (body) made of sticky mud (life) that's almost impossible to make your way through.

I think it's accurate. To me, it looks like the house is consuming you.

How I feel 24/7, not including my manic episodes.

Depression when the work is not done properly and you have leakage

For me, the house should be falling apart with large cracks in foundation.

By the gods, this is correct when explaining depression as a structure. As having clinical depression myself, I can say this reminds me of all the c**p I have ever felt. It feels like everything good melts in the palm of your hand while trying to maintain some sort of hold on it. But you can only sit helplessly and watch as everything around you blurs into unproprotional likeliness of being just so complicated to manuver. The foundation of the house is going and my depression makes me feel isolated and unsupported. Its just........beautiful 0_0

In a way it feel like your trapped on a box drowning And trap out of this world

A lady who sees auras not that I totally believe in that told me my aura is dripping off me. I was so insulted until I saw this picture. Makes sense now

This reminds me of a big four posted bed and lots of doonas to hide under.

I like that part of the foundation is missing because I feel like the floor is falling from beneath me.

I think it should have chains just like the first

Glooooom. Very right

I'm an insomniac and he nailed it!

Omg people...This man is an artist. These are HIS takes on various human conditions. Stop critiquing his choices and just appreciate his gift and willingness to share with the world.

I can relate

The roof does not fit correctly with that pattern........ *internal screaming*

I truly can relate. This is me. I got Asperger, a form of autism where you are actually pretty smart.

This depicts very well the bits and pieces of memory and habit that linger with this disease. The cracks are nearly all the way through, excellent.

I think this one needs to be worked on.... It's still too safe......

Looks like durian house

Thought paranoia would be more like numerous eyes watching you or something. A maze sounds more like OCD or anxiety disorder.

The pictures are well thought through, thanks for that. But I don't think dyslexia is a mental illness

Whats with the corkscrew in the middle?

I can relate to this... Though in my experience it's more like being in a bubble. Although i fully appreciate what the artist was aiming for. Good job

Transgender isnt a disorder

All these disorders are in the DSM, which includes all mental illness, including cognitive/regulatory issues. Narcolepsy, dyslexia, etc are all in there.
