Depression Is The Most Unpleasant Thing I Have Ever Experienced

“Depression is the most unpleasant thing I
have ever experienced. . . . It is that absence
of being able to envisage that you will ever
be cheerful again. The absence of hope.

That very deadened feeling, which is so very
different from feeling sad. Sad hurts but it’s
a healthy feeling. It is a necessary thing to
feel. Depression is very different.”
― J.K. Rowling
