"Some people feel like they don’t deserve love. They walk away quietly into empty spaces, trying to close the gaps of the past."

"The bravest thing I ever did was continuing my life when I wanted to die."

"If you know someone who’s depressed, please resolve never to ask them why. Depression isn’t a straightforward response to a bad situation; depression just is, like the weather. Try to understand the blackness, lethargy, hopelessness, and loneliness they’re going through. Be there for them when they come through the other side. It’s hard to be a friend to someone who’s depressed, but it is one of the kindest, noblest and best things you will ever do."
