What is depression really? Is there one concrete definition, or has the meaning loosened as our generation has continued it&#039;s downhill descent? To me, depression is simply my life. I&#039;m not suicidal. I&#039;m not a cutter. I don&#039;t hate the world. I don&#039;t dress completely in black. I&#039;m just sad. I&#039;ve been sad for what feels like my entire life, but that&#039;s not true. I was happy once and I can vaguely remember what it felt like, but I can&#039;t touch it. I can&#039;t get that happiness back, I don&#039;t know how. That&#039;s what depression is to me, knowing what happiness is, but never being able to touch it, to feel it.- Jenny Leigh
