Diseases of the soul

For whom? For everyone who yearns for sensitivity and reflections. For those who dont await sex scenes and action. For the individuals made defective by the day-to-day grind and rejected by the society. For those for whom getting up in the morning is a sick torment. For the individuals who cant find understanding in their close ones. Amanda is a unique individual. But not because she has superpowers. What makes her unique is her disease - she suffers from schizophrenia. She hears voices; day and night. But sometimes she also sees... And she is living in an unusual place - its a mental hospital. She meets other girls - Melissa who almost died of bulimia and Veronica who is hemmed around by depression. Each of them has a story to tell. And there is Cassandra who makes everyones life miserable... Having depression is like dying when youre still alive. To live and be dead. A person lives in an empty shell called the body but they feel there is no soul inside. As if its gone somewhere and never returned. And that person waits and waits but the soul never returns. Where can the soul go? Not shopping or to visit friends. Thats for sure. Depression is also the feeling when something inside us is screaming but no one can hear it. When we die every day. Every day anew. Forever and ever.
