    I have medication, I am not suicidal, I go to work everyday, I clean my apartment, I feed my cat. I’m not some kind of a burned out wreck living in filth. I am depressed, but that’s just how it is. I’ve made a lot of bad choices in life, with friends, in my career, and now I’m stuck here without a way out.

    Personal growth is an illusion, we are who we are. It’s all determined. You can say it’s God or that it’s a deterministic universe but it’s all the same.

      Depression isn’t equal to all the things you compared it to, and saying that none of us can change no matter how hard we try, maybe shows that you’re the first obstacle to it.

      I wish you luck and for things to get better.
