And It's Far, Far Easier To Manage

Once again, thanks to this invaluable list, I found this article on this blog. Of particular note in this post is the very first article from the BBC: Emotional Pain Worse Than Physical.

It's always made sense to me that emotional pain hurts worse than physical pain; a cut happens, heals and the pain is over. But the vague, yet monstrous, inexplicable pain that comes with depression can last for ages, make you wish it was a physical hurt you could bandage up.

I spend a lot of time sometimes, justifying how really difficult depression is. It's good to have validation from an outside source for once.
