Depresja przychodzi po cichu. UWAGA mocne zdjęcia!

O depresji mówi się ostatnio coraz więcej i coraz bardziej otwarcie, ale wciąż ta choroba nieco nas stygmatyzuje. Badacze z uniwersytetów w Warwick i Manchesterze przekonują, że niesłusznie. Depresją nie jest bowiem groźna dla otoczenia, nie można się nią "zarazić". Wręcz przeciwnie, towarzystwo osób w normalnym, pozytywnym stanie ducha, ich wsparcie, pomaga z depresji wyjść i zmniejsza ryzyko, że znów się w nią wpadnie. Mówiąc wprost, przyjaźń z osobą w depresji nie zwiększa ryzyka, że nam samym pogorszy się nastrój, my sami zaś mamy dużą szansę naszemu przyjacielowi pomóc.

I guess since my Depression portfolio has been featured on the Huff Post (lol), it's time for a repost. I've been really touched by all the kind comments and emails I've received! I feel very #blessed to be alive right now.

PSA: I try to keep things light hearted on social media, but this is important to me. Contrary to popular belief, suicides actually peak in spring and fall (March to be exact), not during the holidays, as you might have heard. For me, at least, this can a really tough time of year. If you're not doing so well, please get professional help. It can be terrifying but it's so worth it - it's literally a matter of life or death (suicidepreventionlifeline.org is a good place to start). Even if depression isn't something you struggle with, we can all help the situation by being the kind of person that our friends will feel comfortable coming to if they're having problems - by being compassionate, by listening, by not being judgmental, etc. In this age where it's easier to connect with each other than ever before, no one should have to feel isolated. Prioritize mental health, because in our short time here on earth, that's kind of all we really have. #onelove

This time last year I was burning through 4x5 film like nobody's business. I should probably start again (btw y'all can save the Mulan jokes).
