depression is much more than that.
Symptoms of depression:
Feelings of helplessness and hopelessness. …
Loss of interest in daily activities. …
Appetite or weight changes. …
Sleep changes. …
Anger or irritability. …
Loss of energy. …
Self-loathing. …
Reckless behavior.
Feelings associated with depression? Numb, empty, miserable, suffering, pain, anger, hurt, loneliness, shame, guilt, weak, slight paranoia(everyone hates me), anxiety, frustration, fed up, fatigued both mentally and physically, worthless, uselessness.
and more, no doubt.
depression more so encompasses a difficulty to function, not a singular feeling.
It’s funny, after some good social time with friends or anyone really, my reaction is more along the lines of:
“Wait a minute, I had fun and was a nice and normal (maybe even funny) person for once? That’s not me. I’m a sad loner, and I love being alone. I don’t need this. And I don’t need them, just like they don’t need me either.”
And back at home I go back to comfortably wallowing in my despair again. At least there nothing will ever change or turn on me.
Yyyup. Oh, and this needs an addendum where you want to talk to people about this (or even just post this comic on facebook) but you don’t because you’re afraid of making it look like you’re blaming your friends for you feeling this way. Vicious circle etc….
Exactly how I feel when I go see friends
Every. Single. Time.
straight from my lips it doesn’t matter either online or in real … hell ……… it’s the same
Uh, this one hits close to home…
sometimes ~
Yes. Definitely me. Every time.
>Implying friends…
Most comics I can relate to, and quite a few of them hit close to home, but none as much as this.
Scary how much I recognise this
This, all the time this.
Always…
Ugh.
This. But I thought depression was the absence of feeling. These comics have all SORTS of feelings all over them. Mostly sad ones.
absence of feeling = empty/numb

That’s me
Tis meeeee!!!!!!

i can relate!
Oh yeah. know that one!
Not only an insightful story, but finally a woman in a comic who has my nose! wow.
yup, me too.
I no longer have friends because I gave into this feeling/self-talk. Ow. 🙁
Every. Damn. Imperfection.
Impostor syndrome, anyone?
Rumination (Post-event rumination).

I can’t ‘only’ see depressions in it, but a grand issue most Aspergers have in this…including myself.
Superbe comics! Really really good, thank you!
Damn. Stereotypical though this may sound, I thought I was the only one who had these post-social meltdowns.
This is me every weekend.
