Moods are a part of our life, but depression is an illness that only certain individuals must suffer through. The image i selected is a mask that seems to express pain and agony. I feel that this best expresses depression in a different form from an emotion. The mask represents her dark side which is her sudden change in moods and her "very black depressions." The cracks on the mask show the things she has been through, and the pain she experiences because of her depressions.
