I have it far worse than you do with depression, which is why the only way to cope with it is to dismiss it constantly and pretend it's not that big of a deal(it is). You have no idea what that's like, you're still in the phase where you get offended because someone mischaracterized your depression. I'm in the one where it's so much a part of my being and it has been for so long that I can't dissasociate myself from it at all, so I just end up denying part of who I am, which only makes everything worse.

Now i'm just seeking attention. Great. More things people without depression tell me.

You have it far worse? I have no idea what it's like? Right. Because you know me so well. You met me a few minutes ago. Don't patronize me.

I'd turn that around on you real quickly because of the terrible advice that you are giving out. I'm glad it that works for you. Wonderful. Stop acting like it's a cure-all for everyone else though. It seriously grates on the nerves after the thousandth time I've heard it.

No, you're just self-pitying, and I'm telling you it doesn't help you. You're literally contributing to your own problem, I think.

I do suffer from depression. How can you tell me otherwise? You expect me to get all offended just like you, right?

Well, I'm sorry, but depression doesn't affect everyone the same. Just because I'm depressed as fuck, doesn't mean I'll constantly complain about it. Some people can afford to. I just can't. If I were to complain I'm scared about what a much darker pit I'd fall into. It doesn't take much with me.

Why do you think I'm such a wonderful person to talk to. It must be because I'm just sad and don't know what I'm talking about, right?

Try again. You're the one that can't even imagine what I'm talking about, not me.
