How does one actually stop being sad? Does it ever stop or am I just expected to live like this forever? How do you know if you’re actually depressed or just very sad? Like I wake up being sad, then I go to bed being sad, do I ever get a break... I am just very confused and don’t understand how long I’m supposed to feel like this.

Hi, it sounds like you have clinical depression. Please go see a doctor if you can to see if you have it. The feeling doesn't last, you just have to get through it. I know this sounds cliche, but it DOES get better. Trust me. talk to friends/family about it if you can. There are virtual therapists you can visit too. I wish you the best of luck. -bubblesoapz
