Depression Tip 33: Senses!💙

I was talking about depression with someone on social media today and it was very interesting. They said that when they're depressed, music kind of sounds off key. I thought that was fascinating.💙

I related it to when people say that in depression, the color kind of drains from their world. And I don't think that's just an expression. I think colors probably are less vivid and more shades of gray.💙

And if you add that to the guy's comment about music sounding off key, and you also throw in the fact that food tastes bland and there's no real feedback of enjoyment or anything from the food. There's no real taste like there used to be to the food.💙

Then you can see a picture of dulling of our senses in depression, the hearing, the sight with the colors, the taste of the food. And I thought that was really interesting. So maybe it's a way to get an early indication of you slipping into depression.💙
