A new TikTok trend has been gaining attention among social media users. People are showing how they deal with symptoms of depression and receiving support during this difficult battle.
TikTok user Arnie went viral after sharing a video cleaning up her “depression room” in the platform’s newest trend. “Finally cleaning my depression room,” she wrote in the video text.
The video shows food remnants, packaging, bags, and a lot of accumulated mess. Even Arnie’s cat was in the middle of the chaos.
The trend has been important for raising public awareness about depression symptoms, which include feeling sad, hopeless, and losing interest in things that once brought pleasure.

In addition, a person with depression may find it difficult to maintain hygiene and perform household tasks.
“My mother died in March. I never had a depression room until now. This honestly made me feel better and a little more understood about what I feel inside,” wrote one user.
“I hope you get better soon. I know what it’s like to have a depression room,” commented another.
The video of the depression room trend has already accumulated over 4.1 million views.
@kurt_cobain564 disclaimer, I have diagnosed severe depression, my room gets messy often and it’s hard for me to clean up. I did my best! I’ll be taking the trash out tomorrow morning and the can return will get done soon so I have some cash for groceries. I still need to vacuum tho! (the tools on the ground are because there was a nasty stain and I put baking soda and vinegar on it to let it set) #cleaning #depression #severedepression #depressionclean #depressionroom #messy #mess #room #messyroom #fyp ♬ igloo by karen o – whizy
