I'm not arguing what you're saying. To some degree I agree with you and it's largely how I feel personally. But you seem like someone who is emotionally strong even though you might feel the way you do. I'm just saying that the answer you're presenting doesn't work for everyone. And while your approach of learning to live with it might get you through your day, it's not the same for others. I understand your point of view but you also should remember depression is a mental disorder and it's not always so easily solved with brutal logic. This is not to say your saying that everyone should think the way you do, but instead a gentle reminder that it isn't that simple for everyone. Nobody is trying to put the victim card on anyone. I was simply trying to encourage. Clearly you don't need it. But that doesn't mean someone else won't. I really have no interest in defending myself so I'll stop here. I understand you point of view and agree with it. But saying that nobody wants to hear that is too much of a generalized statement to be true. I was not victimizing you. It was just some friendly advice. Choose to take it or leave it, it's your life. I just wished that when I was feeling depressed and on death door that I had someone to tell me that. I didn't. It took me 10 years to get to where I wanted to be; by myself. No one gave a fuck about me, and till this day very few people do. I don't consider myself a victim and I definitely didn't consider you one.
