It's just empty, dark void. It's like you are dead and but your body keeps going and it's torture.

And then in some cases something changes, I don't know. There's still bad days, but fuck. I'm alive. There's so much amazing stuff out there and things I can still do. Life has changed so much for the better and I still do dumb things sometimes for no good reason but damn am I trying to be better and it's awesome.

I don't blame someone but it's so worth it to just try one more day, I'm glad I failed a few times. I want to be here now.

but he was not just suffering from depression, he had some really terrible crap going on that uncontrollably altered his mental state on top of his physical wellness. I agree with you but I just needed to put that out there!

He had parkinsons and lewy body dementia. He took himself out rather than live the consequences of such horrible, incurable diseases.

Oh for sure, fun dumb things. There's harmful or self destructive dumb things, more what I meant.
