    What you gotta ask yourself though: If it is really, that everything just sucks so bad, then why isn’t everybody depressed.

    I mean, I don’t even disagree. Everything indeed does suck so bad. But there’s a surprising number of people, that seem to cope with that fact way better than I do.

    Turns out, I actually do have depression. If you suspect, that you do too: seek help. It won’t change that everything sucks so bad. But I already learned to cope a little better, and I hope you can, too.

      There is a surprising number of people too dumb to see just how profoundly everything sucks and hence is going to suck even more

      Then there is a number of people who have the capability to see but actively prevent themselves from it lest it breaks them

      Two things can be true. And your depression can be because everything actually sucks. Instead of being because you simply believe it sucks.

      Seeking help for depression is what lead me to a therapist. She helped me make the changes in my life circumstances that I needed to make my life suck significantly less. I am no longer chronically depressed.
