I’ve been thinking of the way to describe what it feels like for me to be depressed to someone. At first it was hard to come up with something but then I’ve written down this:

“Depression is like having a heavy and massive monster take up residence inside you consuming and devouring your very being and organism making it painful to (emotionally?) function. So through this devastating emotional pain you try to escape it but cannot since the creature is inside you and it is driving you mad and plunging you into a deep melancholy leaving you feeling trapped in a vicious cycle of sorrow, helplessness and spiritual numbness.”

Do you feel the same? Does my text resonate with you?
I still feel like I couldn’t manage to fully describe how depression feels like

Sometimes my English-speaking foreign friends who are into cinema ask me to recommend them some good Azerbaijani films. And every time I come across the fact that we have almost no films translated into English (with English subtitles). There are 60 of them on YouTube, which sounds like a lot, but only 3 or 4 of them are worth the attention of foreigners. And I wouldn't say those few films are the best ones. I'd like to see films like Gün Keçdi, Nəsimi, Uzaq Sahillərdə, Sevil and other masterpieces translated into English. Did anyone ever plan to translate our films? Perhaps there's some platform with Azerbaijani films in English that I'm unaware of?
And what about modern films? Are there any good modern Azerbaijani films that have been translated into English? I know that sometimes they have premieres abroad. However, they are not available on the internet.
I believe foreigners deserve to watch our films too. Do you think we should focus on translating them? If so, how could this be done?
