depressives

Larry: She doesn't want to be happy.
Dan: Everybody wants to be happy.
Larry: Depressives don't. They want to be unhappy to confirm they're depressed. If they were happy they couldn't be depressed anymore. They'd have to go out into the world and live. Which can be depressing.

i can only agree so much. the sad thing about depression is that it's addictive. it is a choice that seems to be inevitable. what i mean is that we succumb to lie deep in our sheets (or shits) and protect ourselves from losing its juices and urges to go on living. when you start to realize that you are a depressive, despite the facade of being the funniest person in the crowd, makes you long for melancholy every minute of your life. it's like inflicting pain in the most excruciating parts of oneself. unimaginable.
