“Depression does its damage and then it hides, covering its tracks, making you think that it is not an illness, that you’re just bad and weird.”
― John Moe, The Hilarious World of Depression

“Talking about depression is great and healthy, but that doesn’t mean it’s not exhausting.”
― John Moe, The Hilarious World of Depression

“What do you have to be stressed about?” the normies might have said, if I ever talked about these things with normal people. “You have a family, a house, a car, a good job. Just deal with it!” As if I could simply do that. As if I chose this. As if I looked at the options available to me and they were clearly labeled “Perseverance” and “Freaking the Fuck Out All the Time” and calmly said, “Mmm, yes, I select option B.”

“Only by being useful or talented, and receiving external recognition, would I achieve personhood. I couldn’t imagine a world where I was a worthwhile person by dint of mere existence; I felt like I needed to earn it and prove it every day. Don’t worry, this feeling went away after only several decades.”
