It's so easy for me to fall back into depression. I think it comes with having money. I don't have to work. I could be sitting bored and depressed at home with a bag on my head.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I am depressed sometimes, but it's not what keeps me at home or focused on work.
I kinda went through a semi-depression. Honestly. Like, I lost myself.
When I'm not working on something, I seem to go through periods of depression. It helps to keep busy.
It's often difficult for those who are lucky enough to have never experienced what true depression is to imagine a life of complete hopelessness, emptiness and fear.
I suffer depression only in the sense that I am a writer. We don't have proper jobs to go to. We are on our own all day. Show me a writer who doesn't get depressed: who has a completely stable mood. They'd be a garage mechanic or something.
I do suffer from depression, I suppose. Which isn't that unusual. You know, a lot of people do.
Yes, I suffer terribly from depression. I have to work at being happy, it's not my natural instinct. My natural instinct is, if something wonderful happens, to throw water in my own face.
I've definitely had times in my life where I've been depressed and not able to do anything at all.
I think it is a luxury and privilege to be sane and well and pessimistic. Because with depression, you have no other option. You don't want that pessimism, because it is crushing you and keeping you down at the bottom of the well.
I still get awful depression. It's who I am.
