The moment I started opening up to someone about my moments of depression they end up being indifferent.
I just...I just wanted him to ask. To care and show concern and want to help even if he couldn't. But he did exactly what I was always scared people would do; he shrugged me off.

If you happen to be reading this journal entry, do me a favour;
• Visit/text/call/IM/email your friend/sibling/parent/relative/whoever.
• Ask if they're okay/how they're doing.

It'll only take a few minutes but you may be throwing that person a lifeline. You'll be letting them know that they're not alone and reminding them that you're there for them. Feel free to pass the message on, link them to this journal or whatever too.

But, before you go; how are you doing?
