    The eternal quagmire. Wanting so badly to talk to someone, and being unable to. One of the loneliest, most frustrating feelings there is.

    I sometimes wonder how much of this is cultural. At least in the States, we’re not expected to give an honest answer. It’s like there’s a happiness contest going on–if you’re not happy, you’re a loser.

      (I am poly) and American, and I have a neurotypical partner. Recently he suggested I ask whether certain things are real or not real to non sick people. I asked “Is there a state of being where you’re happy, where that’s your baseline, when you feel other things and return to happy?” He said “Not real.” And honestly that’s been so fucking conforting. I feel like I’ve been stuck on the idea I’ll always return to sad, while others will always return to happy, but that’s an American fantasy. Everyone has pain, eventually we all have some type of chronic pain. We grow old, we lose people, our bodies fail us and we die, all taboo subjects, all facts. So we have got to be sympathetic to our and others pain, and help each other.

      Not to mention that “How are you doing?” is rhetorical and nobody that asks that actually cares how you are doing.

    The struggle between wanting someone to pour out your feelings to but not wanting to trouble anyone always was one of the worse parts of depression.

    Now this is not as much a problem for me, people DON’T ask me anymore for fear I’ll tell them.

    Actually, if just one person would bother to notice and ask, I would say something. But they don’t.

    Christ, seriously. And when I finally do tell them, thinking they must want to know if they keep asking, it brings them down and I spend hours cheering them up. Life is stupid.
