Maybe there's a perception of me as grumpy old bugger who suffers from depression. It's a total misconception. I don't think of myself as any grumpier than the next person. I'm not even grumpy first thing in the morning.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I wouldn't say I was grumpy. It's more pathological - I have seismic tantrums. I get red in the face and cry at least three times a week, and I have to lie down and have a nap afterwards.
Some people have told me that I'm grumpy; it's not something that I'm aware of. It's not like I walk around poking children in the eye... not very small ones, anyway.
I get moody when I'm tired or hungry. My missus says I get moody... but not with other people. But I can get grumpy.
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 can be a bit grumpy. I'm full of angst, and hormones.
Sometimes when you have bipolar you have days you are grumpy and not feeling yourself.
Depression isn't about, 'Woe is me, my life is this, that and the other', it's like having the worst flu all day that you just can't kick.
I am not a depressive person at all.
I'm horrible in the mornings. I'm grumpy.
I still get awful depression. It's who I am.
