Sticks and stones may break some bones, but words can hurt people too.... During their lifetime 11% of Canadians will suffer from major depressions, 45% of people worldwide will suffer from some level of depression. It is often hard to tell who suffers from depression, some pull away from society and hide, others hide it from prying eyes and put on a show for the world, and some give up... So the next time you feel like saying or doing something mean/hurtful, stop and think this may hurt that person alot more than it would hurt you, and lets be honest none of us want to be the reason or part of the reason someone gave up. Give hugs freely, ask people you care about if something is wrong, dont stand idly by when someone is bullied, or belittled, and lastly remember that everyone faces a different struggle. Together we can succeed, and beat depression.
