“It’s like… nobody wants to feel bad. Especially when you “don’t have a reason”, you know? People look at you like… what are you complaining about?Your life is good, but it’s not really about that. Depression isn’t about that. You can’t help it. But you don’t want people looking at you like you’re ungrateful, or selfish, or whatever. So instead of feeling bad, I was choosing to feel…nothing. Feeling nothing was preferable. Made it easier to pretend to be happy.”
