It's waking up feeling like someone you love has died when nothing is wrong, being exhausted no matter how much you sleep, and feeling completely disconnected from a world everyone else seems able to participate in.In this video, I'm sharing 10 experiences that people with chronic depression understand but others often don't, including anhedonia, overwhelming physical exhaustion, emotional isolation, and the strange experience of wanting to want something without actually wanting anything.If you've struggled to explain what depression really feels like, I hope this helps you feel a little less alone. And if there's something I missed, share it in the comments so we can make this a place where people who live with depression can feel understood. If my podcast has helped, my new book, The Light Between the Leaves, goes even deeper
I know what it is to feel hopelessly stuck and worthless to the world in general. I also know what it is to live without those feelings. I’m both a Clinical Psychology specializing in treatment-resistant depression and anxiety, and a human who has spent more than a decade managing sever depression and anxiety.
