a: sadness ~
b: walking through a muddy swamp
What:
"Depression is a different entity altogether. It is a serious mental health problem, and fortunately not as commonplace as sadness. Depression, sometimes called melancholia, is referred to in lay terms as a "nervous breakdown." Depressed people are not actually broken, but they are bending downward. And if sadness is like walking through a muddy swamp, depression is like flailing helplessly in quicksand. When it overtakes us, we feel powerless, lost, with no options."

Topic: Depression, sadness
Sadness is walking through the forest,a forest you and your best friend walk through to get home every day but your friend is in the hospital due to car crash and you must walk alone, wondering if your best friend will make it, your focus is so distracted in the sad thoughts you lose your shoes when skipping a river, the soul feel in the waters.
Depression is not having a friend to lose, as you walk through life mourning the life you could have had... And your only walking through the forest because you didn't want to ask for a ride from someone you think hates you, and you feel like a bother to every one.
You are in a state of mourning but no one died, yet you feel as if you have already.
You fall into the river as you skip, many would be annoyed... this is the highlight of your day
