Depression: A Short Story

Depression is a psychological disorder that affects your mood and outlook on your own life. This psychological disorder is different for everyone but the way it is represented in Twilight: New Moon is inaccurate. When people have depression they have bad days and good days but they do not go from extreme lows to extreme highs very quickly. In this movie the only feeling that is represented is Bella’s extreme lows. They never show Bella having a good day. For months all Bella does is sit in a chair. People with depression do not just sit in chairs for months. It is true that depression can be crippling and people can lose the motivation to get out of bed, but in the movie Bella goes from sitting in a chair for months to working on bikes with

I felt myself fading away. I didn’t know what to think, what to say, how to react. I was stuck. I could hear in the distance my mom justifying herself and asking me to not tell anyone, as if I could. The walk back to my room seemed like an endless tunnel with no light at the end.

I isolated myself from my friends and family and I refused to tell anyone what my mom was going through. It seemed as though my whole life was falling apart and I yearned for a happy family. I thought that if I didn’t talk about it, it wouldn’t exist and I

I begged my parents to make my moving day three months early. As soon as my parents accepted my request after long discussions, I picked up my phone, e-mailed my friends to tell them that I was coming back, and discussed on what day we could meet up. I was very excited about the whole new life I could make in Japan and imagined how it would be every night in my head. When I moved back to and went to school in Japan, however, the situation did not change at all. I went back to school I used to go before moving to the United States, and I was glad to see familiar faces of my classmates.

I started thinking of all the things that would change, such as a new school, new neighborhood and new friends. My parents, my sister and I were inside the airport now heading over to the security check. My brother wasn't with us because he couldn't wait to get to California and start his new university, his love for California started when we went for a trip to Los Angeles.
