A sad place for sad people to be sad.

Have fun!

This community is for people with depression. Memes and general discussion about depression are encouraged and welcome.

Bi-polar people are also allowed to post here but only sometimes.(joke)

This community is aimed at being inclusive for all people with depression and as such should be free of racism, homophobia, trans-phobia, sexism, patriarch and all other forms of hate-speech.

Trolls will be banned!

Thnx

Very well said.

I would just like to add that there have been many, many times in my life when I wanted to help, but I didn't know how, or didn't have the means. And sometimes life just sucks, and there isn't anything that can really help.

I hope that, in those times, the people I loved didn't think I didn't help simply because I didn't want to.
