Depression has been a taboo, not only in our country but in many first world countries as well. People who haven’t been through depression try to give silly advice to the sufferers. They say senseless things like ‘It’s all in your mind’.
But the one who’s bearing the wrath of depression knows, that it’s not something that’s in their mind. Just like our body fall ill sometimes, our brain is a part of our body as well. It can also fall ill or fail to function properly. But to many, this obvious idea seems to be unpragmatic.
