Ah, the unpredictable world of depression. No one better dare say, "you'll feel better tomorrow", or "you've been under a lot of stress" (who isn't?) Or my favorite one from my sister....you confuse unhappiness with depression." Because God knows she thinks my clusterfuck life makes me unhappy in her unqualified assessment, but why would I be depressed? Ughh.....Leave me alone, let me sleep all day, cry, feel sorry for myself, and hope I don't put a gun to my head...but don't say these stupid ass things to me. They do not help.

I'm continuing to read your plight, dear girl. You validate my exact feelings and I appreciate it. I'm not alone.
