I often feel like depression is the only thing I talk about lately. Maybe because, lately, it's one of the only things weighing on my mind. It's always there. I can dull it with medication and therapy, but it's something I have had to come to terms with. I have depression

Thanks. It was my first real attempt to try and be a little more direct about it, rather than skirt around or make jokes.

I like being friends with you. I will be there when you are depressed, and when you are not depressed. *bigbighugs*

And then depression makes it All Your Fault. It does get better. But then it gets worse again. Then better. And by then I'm thoroughly sick of my own head and would rather be a robot or something. I hope depression gives you a bit of a break soon.

I guess I have to come to terms with the fact that I'll never be "cured". It's not going to magically go away and I won't become a non-depressed person if I: "get over it"; "get a job"; "just be happy!" or "go shopping!"

You've got it -- EXACTLY. I get so SICK of myself and then blame myself and then alienate, because I can't have people around me and if they try to be around me, I lash out.

Thanks, me too.
