Analysis of Depression



He was born, his parents exuberant and he opened his eyes and began to wept and wept. Little did his parents know these tears won't end here .

He was soon ready for school, a quiet kid entering the unknown and as he went through life's common trials he didn't realize he was slowly losing to his mind and just like that his Junior years were over.

Entering his teens he tried to fit in but failed , and he watched from the sideline as his friends made friends and female companions and they eventually went to college leaving him behind. He grew sadder and sadder and that was when his decline started getting worse and worse .

Now in his 20s all he does is cry because he feels like his digging himself deeper and deeper In a hole which will eventually be six feet deep. Innocent tears fall from his face all he can do is wipe them and smile by his loved ones but deep down his Just lonely, tired and lost.
