If you end up reading all of it could you help me with a title thanks

All of my depression
Has dug its self in
I try to rid my body of it
I don’t know where to begin

The TV is full of it
I want to gouge out my eyes
All the music I here
Hollow desperate cries

I try to turn, run away
It follows close behind
I look for things to drown it out
It venires everything I find

I’ve run away 6 times before
It’s something I can’t help but feed
But I’ve feed it one to many times
And now it’s something I need

when you live you begin to die
when you die memories of you life lives in others
when memories of you begin to fade
you truly begin to die

A title....hmmm.
Those are very personal things. In my opinion an untitled work is an uncomplete one.  Would you really like someone else to put the finishing touches on your mind's design?

I am the prophet
Harbinger of what you fear the most
Your enemy of belligerent honesty
Destroyer of your livelihood, built on falsehood

Well, isn't it true that depression is a disease? So, my idea for a title is 'Haunted'. I say this because you are continuously being haunted by this disease that's eating away at you. Also, a title like that doesn't really give away the concept of the poem. It's only a suggestion, but I hope I helped you a little. LOL.

This poem is AMAZING!
I think you're kind of censoring your feelings, and it would add more to a poem if you put in everything, but i can tell this is personal, and i think its amazing how well you figured out depression and put it into words. Wow. About a title, whatever works. I think it should be something personal, but i think some poems were meant to be untitled, so maybe this is one of them.

I was depressed for a long time so I know where you're coming from. This was a really touching poem for me because that is exactly how I felt for what feels like forever. As for a title, I can't really help you. I suck at thinking of titles. But I do agree with whoever said "Haunted". It sounds good to me.
