Depressions.
No one is talking about them until a celebrity is outing him or herself as being affected by it. Or more worse when they commit suicide.
Then it is for a short time in the medias and the people are talking about it.
But shortly after they lost interest again.
While there are so many people who are affected by depressions and are fighting every single day for their life. When "normal" People are talking about having depressions, the reaction from the people around are much different as if a celebrity is talking about it.
The people are often not that interested or thinking, that you only want to have attention. Or they simply think you only have a depressive phase.
Because you are laughing, you are smiling, you seems to be as you always was. They don't get it.
And shortly after, they lost interest. Instead of being there for you, they sometimes even getting annoyed from you, when you are down and want to talk.
I think it's really difficult for them, to deal with such a topic. It's difficult, to know, how to react and at the same time they maybe think, that it is just one of the diseases that all people at this time have from time to time but don't think, that you are actually sick.
And when you kill yourself, they will all be like "I didn't know, that it is so bad, I didn't know, that it was serious. I thought it's just a phase" or other things.
That's the problem the depressive people are fighting with, beside the depression. As if this alone wouldn't be enough to bear with.
Of course there may be some people who saying they are depressed and they are actually just in a phase. But never the less, the other people should finaly start to take depressions as a serious illness and see it, as what it is. A life threatening disease.
You don't belive that? Well let me show you.
There's actually a long list of celebritys who comitted suicide because of depressions or the side effects of it.
Last victim of this disease was (so far I know) Chester Bennington. Singer from Linkin Park.
