    depression discussion

    Symptoms of depression:

    Sick and tired of touching grass. Exhausted from social media/reading and whatever. Food feels disgusting. The idea of sex feels even more repulsive. Can’t even mastrubate properly.

    I just wish I could immerse myself in work to forget about it all.

    “But sodium can’t you just already do that? What’s stopping you?”

    Other than the inability to focus? Lack of any direction? How do I immerse myself when I know I’m just trying to escape? It doesn’t work that way. I want … meaningful work. But it ain’t there.

    “How about going to the queer meetups? Nature tours? The ones the social worker told you about?”

    Don’t have the emotional bandwidth to meet with new people. What, I go there and start caring about even more people’s lives? Have extra people to compare myself to and know just how ugly and not passing I am?

    "Can you not just take your anti-depressants?

    They’re there. I know. Taunting me “oh come and be plagued with headaches!” or fucking whatever.

    I’ll still take em. Don’t worry.
