Depressing Proverbs

Depression begins with disappointment. When disappointment festers in our soul, it leads to discouragement. You largely constructed your depression. It wasn't given to you. Therefore, you can deconstruct it. Depression is like falling so deep down the rabbit hole you forget what the sky looks like. Tears are often the telescope by which men see far into heaven.

The worst kind of pain is when you're smiling just to stop the tears for falling. No one is depressed when they're being chased by a bear. Depression is living in a body that fights to survive, with a mind that tries to die. If you are chronically down, it is a lifelong fight to keep from sinking.

There is no greater sorrow than to recall in misery the time when we were happy. Having depression is being in an abusive relationship with yourself. If we admit our depression openly and freely, those around us get from it an experience of freedom rather than the depression itself. Below you will find our collection of inspirational, wise, and humorous old depressing quotes, depressing sayings, and depressing proverbs, collected over the years from a variety of sources.

It's a bit like walking down a long, dark corridor, never knowing when the light will go on. Depression presents itself as a realism regarding the rottenness of the world in general and the rottenness of your life in particular. The more persuaded you are of your unique access to the rottenness, the more afraid you become of engaging with the world; and the less you engage with the world, the more perfidiously happy-faced the rest of humanity seems for continuing to engage with it. To perceive is to suffer. Wanting to be happy is not the worst thing in the world, but wanting it badly enough to make us depressed is.

Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad. The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it. Death has a tendency to encourage a depressing view of war. The walls we build around us to keep sadness out also keeps out the joy.

You are allowed to feel messed up and inside out. It doesn't mean you're defective - it just means you're human. Every so often, we all gaze into the abyss. You just got to be careful not to touch it where it hurts.

42 Depressing Quotes and Sayings about Life and Love

It was almost like a reverse nightmare, like when you wake up from a nightmare you're so relieved. I woke up into a nightmare. It doesn't mean you're defective - it just means you're human.

Because in that moment.

Rather she is protecting you from the foul, destructive evil which she believes is the essence of her being and which she believes can injure you. Sometimes it's the smile we fake. I'm not happy, and I know that. But I'm also not exactly sad either. I'm just caught right in between all these emotions and I feel so empty. Then one day you realize what you lost is yourself. Even though I'm dying on the inside. Like I'm here, but I'm not. Like I belong somewhere else, anywhere but here. It's very hard to think of other people when you're wrapped in a prickly blanket of sadness and all you can think about is your own pain.

I mean, I'm not sad, but I'm not exactly happy either. I can laugh and joke and smile during the day, but sometimes when I'm alone at night I forget how to feel. At the same time, though, you hate how nobody notices how torn apart and broken you are. She says she feels good but she's in a lot of pain.

She says it's nothing but it's really a lot. A human being can survive almost anything, as long as she sees the end in sight. But depression is so insidious, and it compounds daily, that it's impossible to ever see the end. The fog is like a cage without a key. But you can't see the depression in her eyes.
