She Captured What Depression Feels Like! You’ll Get Numb!

“A Girl Called Melancholy – A Story Of Depression” is a photo series by Janelia Mould. She has captured the very dark vibe of depression and what it feels like to be trapped in your own mind. She said,

“I tried to capture the lack of being,” Mould, a self-taught photographer from South Africa, told The Mighty. “I am always looking for topics or themes to express myself through. I try to convey some sort of message through my images and was inspired by my own life-experience for this series. The images are a very subjective to my journey with depression.”
