Depression is a Disease... Respect It and Save Lives.

DEPRESSION is real and is a disease and because people do not understand, its still a taboo to talk or worst, even when people talk or share, people don’t take it seriously or bother to think and pass it off as either “Mood Swing” or “trying to take advantage of the situation”, or “she/he is just weak emotionally “. Worst is the other taboo of “Men cant Cry”, for we are tutored that Men cannot show their emotions and if they do then they are labeled as “Oh He is Just Not Man Enough”, “He is Soft”.

The thinking and perspective of Humans for Fellow Humans needs to change, when will it change?

The grooming has to begin from tender age. Over-protecting your child needs to stop. Over-exposure to Social Media which creates a (Destructive) Self Image that shatters the Emotional and Real World Image needs to stop because then we are not able to cope with the Real Self, we cannot accept the Real Me. We start believing and living in our virtual self Avatars.

And then we have this Yellow Journalism. Why is media so very insensitive. Why can’t they leave the grieving family and friends alone and NOT make a mockery of such a painful phase in their life.

There are enough “stories” out there for these news channels and media to cover, why get into these insensitive side of stories. Stop That, respect people’s privacy, even of celebrities and public figures... yes they too have right to their private life.

Education has destroyed us. Education has on the contrary made us so inhuman and insensitive. It has made us believe that life is all about “COMPETING”. People without formal education are far better because they use their instincts and natural intellect. We all have read stories of how the poor helps the man in need. I call that education, and not literacy. I call that as social being which makes us humans and not what formal education makes out of us.

It amazes me to see instinct reactions of people like in the case of Sushant Singh Rajput. How do we start justifying by posing questions like “what depression did he have? His career was doing good, he had a beautiful house, he is good looking and very talented. What possibly did he lack that he was depressed?”

It is high time we understand what this demon devil DEPRESSION is. It is a Disease of the Brain, similar to any other disease we get of our organs like of heart, liver, lungs etc. and anyone irrespective of who they are, what their profession or social status is or where they are, can get this disease. 

Let us stop being these Educated Illiterate people.

Help and Get Helped to Save Lives.
