Depression doesn’t always look the way we expect. 💭 It’s not just tears and sadness—it can also be disguised as exhaustion, numbness, or even functioning 'just fine' while silently struggling inside. Sometimes, depression wears a mask that says, 'I’m okay,' when deep down, it feels like the world is crumbling. This is why it’s so important to check in with those around you, even if they seem like they’ve got it all together. High-functioning depression is real, and it can often go unnoticed. A simple 'How are you, really?' can make a world of difference. If you’re feeling this way, know that you are not alone. Healing starts with recognizing what you’re going through and reaching out. 💙 What’s one small way you support someone who might be struggling? Repost credit: @cnn
