To me the image i have selected represents this quote fairly well. The image of the person shows how serious the depression is because of the position they are in. The way they curl their body in a corner represents pain, loneliness and suffering. Also the black of the image represents depression itself, as depression is the condition of mental disturbance, where many persons suffer negative thoughts. The black represents their negative thoughts. The light in the image is reality, and it seems as though it is getting smaller because the person is going further and further into depression.
