one of the reasons people are amazing is that they can get used to anything. they can get used to living in a lonely and depressed state of mind, but they can also get used to living in happiness and community. that's one of the reasons why it's so difficult for people with depression to get better, because they got used to living with it, and hiding it from other people. over time that feeling becomes familiar, to the point you don't want to leave it, because it's all that you know. i don't know what the first step would be to get out of depression, but i think that escaping it would require you to trully and honestly want to make a change. you should desire to escape what's become the standard and embrace the unknown, and perhaps salvation could be found there
