To be happy. Depression is hell.
I'm sorry to hear that my guy
Honestly same.
I just want to be happy (ββΈβ)
The first step to happiness is to have hope. Think about a lifelong dream of your's, and then form a plan on how to achieve it.
I'm all for hope, but clinical depression is lifelong. There's always going to be ups and extreme downs. Stating that happiness is an end stage that people with clinical depression can reach and maintain isn't realistic.
I have clinical depression. Speaking from experience here.
Same.
