Quotes by Ann Rutherford

Quotes by Andy Behrman

Quotes by Andy Behrman

My manic depression was ravaging my life, but because nobody could see it, many people thought it was a figment of my imagination.

Quotes by Andy Behrman

Oddly, I believe that emotional proximity we feel to close loved ones makes it hard to be honest with them about feelings of depression.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a quote here about the video game 'Depression Quest'?
Yes: "The majority of my work in games, outside of 'Depression Quest,' has been experimental pushes into comedy games. I think there are a lot of intersections there." It's about game design and comedy, not the mood.
Is there a quote about living through the Great Depression?
Yes: "I didn't feel the Depression at all. I always had a pocketful of money." It's a personal, historical account of the 1930s economic era, not the mood.
Is there a quote about someone dealing with depression personally?
Yes, stated plainly and without elaboration: "I think I suffer from some mild depression." It's shared as a simple first-person admission, not dramatized.
Does every real post collected under 'Depression' actually discuss depression?
Not quite - one of the four real posts is about leverage practices in private equity and investment banking, with no mention of depression (the mood or the economic era) at all, so it isn't used as depression-themed material here. The other three genuinely connect to the word, and those are what this page draws from.
Where can I find more related content?
Try Depression status or Depression prayers, or Anxiety quotes for a related theme.
