“I saw a meme the other day with a picture of Marilyn Manson and Robin Williams. It said about the former, this isn’t the face of depression, and about the latter, this is. This really struck a chord and it’s been on my mind since then. As someone who has continuously dipped in and out of chronic depression and anxiety for close to three decades now, and I’ve never previously spoken about the subject, I finally thought it was time I did.
These days it’s trendy for people to think they’re cool and understanding about mental illness, posting memes and such to indicate so. But the reality is far different to that. It seems most people think if they publicly display such understanding then perhaps a friend will come to them, open up, and calmly discuss their problems. This will not happen. For someone in that seemingly hopeless void of depression and anxiety the last thing they are likely to do is acknowledge it, let alone talk about it. Even if broached by a friend they will probably deny there is a problem and feel even more distanced from the rest of the world.
So nobody can do anything to help, right? No. If right now you suspect one of your friends is suffering like this then you’re probably right. If right now you think that none of your friends are suffering like this then you’re probably wrong. By all means make your public affirmations of understanding, but at least take on board that an attempt to connect on this subject by someone you care about could well be cryptic and indirect.
When we hear of celebrities who suffered and finally took their own lives the message tends to be that so many close friends had no idea. This is woeful, but it’s also great, right? Because by not knowing there was a problem there is no burden of responsibility on anyone else. This is another huge misconception, that by acknowledging an indirect attempt to connect on such a complex issue that somehow you are accepting responsibility to fix it. This is not the case. You don’t have to find a solution. Maybe just listen. Many times over the years I’ve seen people recoil when they suspect that perhaps that is the direct a conversation is about to turn, and they desperately scramble for anything that can immediately change the subject. By acknowledging you’ve heard and understood doesn’t mean you are picking up their burden and carrying it for them.
Anyway, I’ve said my piece. And please don’t think this is me reaching out for help. If this was my current mindset the last thing I’d ever do is write something like this, let alone share it.”

“Quand je refuse une sortie, car je ne le sens pas, que je ne me sens pas bien, il me pose souvent cette fameuse question : « Pourquoi tu n’es pas bien ? Quelle est la raison ? ».
Le problème, c’est qu’il n’y en a pas une seule bien distincte, je ne sais pas pourquoi je ne vais pas bien. Je fais vraiment de mon mieux pour rester sociale, mais je n’y arrive plus, et j’ai graduellement arrêté de vouloir essayer de lui expliquer. Je ne sais pas quoi lui dire de plus à part « Parfois, ça ne va pas, il n’y a pas de raison précise ou de solutions définies pour améliorer les circonstances, c’est tout. »”

“GUZAR TA NAHI YE SHAAM-E-GHAM
Guzar ta nahi ye shaam-e-gham
Zindagi ke dukhon ka hai peham sitam
Qadam qadam par thakan ka pehra
Himaton ke chiragh bhi ho gaye madhham
Musaafir hoon raahon ka jin ko khabar
Manzilon ka saraab hai, dil ka maatam
Khawab jo bune the, reza reza huye
Haath khaali rahe, na raha koi dum
Sawaal ye hai, aye falak-e-jafa
Kitna aur sehna hai, bata ye sanam
Guzar jaye ye shaam-e-gham kisi tarah
Warna raah mein bikhar jayein hum”

“You are encouraged to put your passion & efforts into protecting and establishing your stable financial future, instead of looking for others to partner with to share your property or inherit property from others in this life. Come out to cultivate your own crops and wait for their harvests like a peasant or a gardener. With your north node Aries in 2nd house, you are coming to realize that all your possessions have to be owned and earned by yourself. As an entrepreneur's spirit, you can effectively manage your material possessions to build self-worth in society in this lifetime. Gone is the mediocre middleman in an intimate partnership or close family. This time, life seriously challenges you to venture for your own money. Plan and do big for all things that you never dared to think about doing independently, especially when you were in your childhood, where you automatically follow intensive cooperation to sharing your belongings. North Node Aries in 2nd house put your Aries soul energy on the front line of your financial life. It is important to display Aries's potential in this aspect to practice and foster your positive energies in the process of your spiritual growth. Speak less and act impulsively and do more, being daring when addressing the public will bring you fulfillment joyfully...

“Are we really afraid of fire, or is it the fact that it burns? Are we truly afraid of heights, or is it the possibility of falling and dying? Do we fear wild animals, or is it their ferocity that terrifies us? It is not us alone that are sinister, but our actions that make us so.”
