My opinion on depressed people

[Cheese McNair]

To be clear from the jump, this is an opinion.

*hits the bong*

I think people that are truly mentally depressed are actually some of the happiest people


The brain just needs balance. That's why at times, depressed people are unhappy for no real reason. The brain is forcing them to be sad otherwise they would be too happy

Have you ever seen a depressed person get excited about something they love? Usually when they do, it's over the top excitement

Almost to the point where you question if they are really depressed. If they didn't have depression, they would be like that all the time, and that wouldn't be good for the brain.

Anyway, I know it's bad to generalize but it's just an opinion. Depression is a serious brain condition

why is that?

Depression is like an evil spirit consuming your whole mind and body. You become super heavy like it's sat on your back. It changes all your thoughts to poisonous negative ones. Your whole personality chages you become a different person.

I just came out of my depression a few months back and had a relapse last week and the difference in me was huge. Like two completely different people.

why is that?

Because it makes zero sense.
The whole objective of your brain is to avoid pain and seek pleasure why would your brain make you hurt because you're "too happy"?
The reason depressed people get super excited about shyt that they like is because for a breif moment they get to escape the hell thats within their mind/physical.
Its like a nikka in jail getting a visit.

I think depression is suppressed, subliminal, and repressed shame and guilt. Guilt and shame like any other ailment, mental or physical, doesn't just go away because you ignore it. It festers and our organism will suffer for it.

people are murking themselves because they have a mental illness they cant control. i'm not trying to diminish deppresion. i'm just guessing as to why it EXIST in the brain in the first place.

Depression isn't balance my nikka.

It's actually the complete opposite wich why its called a chemical IM-balance.
The body would never let you suffer,self harm,give up,commit suicide etc if the problem was you were "too happy"

Unless you're describing bipolar people wich is the definition of a unbalanced brain swaying from one extreme to another idk how you could come to this conclusion about depressed people.
