Speaking from experience, people far removed from a situation generally have difficulty understanding it. Sympathy and empathy can only go so far. I think this is why "misery loves company". Not because people in a situation want it inflicted upon anybody else, but it's more relatable. I always held that saying in some negative connotation.
In other news, everybody seems to think I'm suicidal.
But yall shoulda seen me when I was suicidal.
Yeah, shit's all bad. But I know it can and will get better. I mean, my mom is going to die, that can't possibly be better, I guess it's better than her suffering.
But it's kind of like when people ask you if you are OK and you thought you were good, until somebody asked, and notices that maybe you should not be OK in this exact moment, then you begin to react like things are not OK.
Yes, I'm depressed. Without a doubt. I guess I'm considering medication for the first time in over a decade and a half.
What if things get worse? Or if things pretend to get better and then just get worse again.
I know it's an ebb and a flow, but I feel like it shouldn't have such a strong break.
