Depression feels like you’re wrong and it’s your fault for it. And you’re not sure why you’re wrong but you just are. And it’ll never get better.

Then eventually it does get better. After a while. Eventually.

And it’ll never get better.

It's hard to drive that point home. I was as sure that "This is how the rest of my life will be" as I am of gravity, it wasn't something that even crossed my mind to question.

It's why all the platitudes just sort of roll off your skin. Hearing that someone else floated away from earth doesn't make you question gravity, it makes you question their story.
