By Christian Hopkins, this very talented young photographer uses his photography as a true artistic outlet to help with his depression. The whole set of images are just stunning and really draw you in, a perfect example of how art can help a person having a difficult time to express themselves.

Sometimes, I feel really bad for people who have never seen, or heard of, Eurovision.

Calming. Bunnies. (Based off of Calming Manatee.) I LOVE THIS. Via steelplatedhearts.
I made a series of Calming Bunnies (based off of the Calming Manatee meme) for my friend Gab, who isn’t a huge fan of manatees!
We can always use more bunnies, I think.
I think I just exploded. <3
CALMING BUNNIES!

And that’s the most frustrating thing about depression. It isn’t always something you can fight back against with hope. It isn’t even something — it’s nothing. And you can’t combat nothing. You can’t fill it up. You can’t cover it. It’s just there, pulling the meaning out of everything. That being the case, all the hopeful, proactive solutions start to sound completely insane in contrast to the scope of the problem.
It would be like having a bunch of dead fish, but no one around you will acknowledge that the fish are dead. Instead, they offer to help you look for the fish or try to help you figure out why they disappeared.
The problem might not even have a solution. But you aren’t necessarily looking for solutions. You’re maybe just looking for someone to say “sorry about how dead your fish are” or “wow, those are super dead. I still like you, though.”

What about the people who can’t go see a professional? Do they just walk around saying “I’m fine” when they aren’t?
I think s/he is referring more to those people who try to sound “quirky” and “unique” by throwing a bunch of labels in front of their name. Like, no. Mental disorders aren’t fun. They suck. A lot. And having someone pretend like they’re just interesting aspects of a personality is hella offensive and annoying. It diminishes the actual importance of the disorder and makes it so nobody takes someone who actually has a disorder seriously.

YES. Let’s do this!
set up the board, I’ll be right over. Study up on the rules because I’ll be pretty busy breaking crayons so I’ll have to ask a lot of questions and won’t understand the point of the game until it is over and no need to order me a coffee because they don’t serve my kind there.
