Depression feels like a weight pulling you under, a storm that never seems to pass. Some days, even breathing feels like a battle. But listen—you're still here. And that means something.

You are not your pain. You are not your bad days. You are more than the voice that tells you to give up. Even if today feels unbearable, tomorrow holds possibilities you can’t see yet. Keep fighting, even if all you do is hold on. You are stronger than you think. ~ Y
