This video from BuzzFeed, featuring amazingly emotive everyday objects, and quotes from depressed people, is a great way of explaining to people that depression is more than just a blue mood that you can pop a pill for.
And when we listen, when we really let what people say to us, sink in, we have an opportunity to really relate and perhaps even help somebody. This is an opportunity to open our minds to the day-in and day-out situations people with depression face.
Time for some empathy, and this is a great start.
