I'm beginning to think there is no way to truly escape depression. one of my long-time friends this morning began talking about his depression, And the deal was, I know this guy, He wants to vent his depression by talking to me about it for hours, So I cut him off and said look, man, You do this every year, You get depressed because of your woman issues and then as soon as spring or summer hits you find a woman and then you aren't depressed anymore, So, I asked him could we just please spare the long depressing talk. He gets upset, I tried to explain to him, that for me depression is a toxic thing that I go out of my way to avoid, He said he understood, And yet he was still pissed off at me for how I handled the situation.
My thing is, I just don't want to place any time at all dwelling on depression. It's not healthy for a person, And The thing is, I'm the kind of person that dwells a lot on my thoughts the last thing I need is any form of depression to dwell on. I do however feel Like I dismissed his depression As if it were nothing and then went on to tell him how his problems weren't actual problems.
I know I could have done a better job navigating through that situation. But, To be fair, at that moment it really did feel like, him saying. " I feel this Dark bad pain, -Let me share it with you" And I just didn't want that. Am I a terrible person? Because there is another side to this, I could have done a better job being his friend and talking with him about the issues So ironically, I'm a little down, Because I was trying to avoid someone bringing me down, And it backfired and made things worse.
There is no way to win, Depression is like an act of war, people will literally kick your emotional walls down to infect you with it.
It's no wonder I'm a fucking hermit
