Listening to #BTS_BE is soothing yet it can be emotional. Especially "Blue & Grey". Listening to Suga's verse reminds me of the hardest times I've experienced with #Depression.

As someone who has experienced periods of #Blueness and struggled to get out of bed, struggled to leave home to do things, etc., the lyric "I just wanna be happier" hits me SOOO hard. That's the feeling I remember vividly. You just want to be happier, but you can't do it.

Another lyric from Suga that hits me is "that deep blue shadow that devours me". Depression is all-encompassing. It devours you. It stops you. And you feel the blueness take everything over. Nothing seems right anymore, everything looks bleak and hopeless.

If you are feeling depression and struggling right now, I urge you to reach out and ask for help. #MentalHealthMatters and there are resources for you to get the support you need. @depressionnote and @ruokday can provide the help needed to move forward.

I wrote about this for @FightingStripes, but it is the empathy of BTS's lyrics that speak to me. They dig into these crucial feelings of depression and anxiety in a way that I have never heard in #KPOP . https://www.fightingstripes.com/articles/blog-post-title-two-jp24l

To end this thread I want to offer this final thought.

#YouAreNotAlone. Others are struggling with depression in the same way you are. And there is always someone who loves and cares about YOU.
