I believe depression is linked to an inability to learn from one's experiences. If I stay home and do nothing, I'm going to be lazy and lonely. If I go out and do things, I'm probably going to meet people and have new experiences. If I think it's difficult to get off the couch to go out and do something, it will be. It's my mind fucking with me. Why are people born with such debilitating problems?
Sometimes I wish I believed in God. Things would be so much easier. God would have a plan for me and all I had to do was believe in Him and Jesus and they would take care of me. Believing in a higher power would be so comforting. All of my gifts would have been given to me by God and I would use them to serve His purposes.
The problem is that it's obvious to me that it's all made up. To me, Christianity is no different than Greek mythology - just a bunch of well-meaning stories.
