Depression is a quiet struggle that impacts millions of lives worldwide, often unnoticed even by those closest to the person enduring it. It’s a striking paradox: something so widespread can often go unseen, leaving friends and family unaware of the deep inner battles being fought. For many, understanding or expressing their emotions is an overwhelming challenge, making depression even more isolating. However, art has long been a profound way to communicate what words often cannot. Depression-themed art—whether created by someone living through it or experienced by those seeking understanding—serves as both a mirror and a connection, offering comfort and a sense of solidarity.
