Did you know that behind depression each person is fighting his own deamonds? That when you said things like “you have lack of character” or “it is shame you do not have any will to do things” you are feeding those deamonds? A depressed person is not depressed because he or she wanted to. It starts in our brain with a little idea that becomes a monster that want to eat you. And how does its start? From one moment no the next you start feeling lazy to go out, to see and talk to your friends, to walk or move, to take the Metro or the Underground, to sit in your working chair. And this happens for three mayor reasons:

  1. Genetics.
  2. Surroundings.
  3. Personality.

When some of those three elements is unbalanced, pum! Our brain full of neurons collaps and synapsis bethween those neurons collapsed. Our brain is like a huge structure, a building perhaps and the depressed person is the conscierge whoe decides who get´s in and finds out, who is going out. Well, depression building is full. No one can get in and people inside is trapped.

Think twice when you judge someone with depression, it is a chemical reaction. Conscierge need help as soon as possible.
