Freya Johansson, who has worked on this exhibition, has captured stories from people who suffer of mental illness. She wants to highlight people who suffer or have suffered from depression and let them tell their own story, and how the disease affected their lives.

This is naked and delivered stories about what it's like to have depression. Please respect that some want to pass as anonymous.


Playing chess with death

Feels like eating nails

Pause and feel

My fake surface

My fight against myself

She's the reason I'm alive

I'm still here

Trying to chase away my darkness

Thank you

Why do we make them feel ashamed?
