Hey guys havent been on for agess,hope you're all well tho

Just a little thinking going on (which may be reflective of my mood but nonetheless)
-Do you guys think depression is something which will always be there?I mean if you have it and if in the future you're *cured* (or w/e you wanna call it), do you think its just that you're better able to cope with the feelings and can prevent from feeling that way?or do you see at as something completely seperate from yourself?
Sorry may be a little bleak,but as i said reflective of my mood maybe?

I personally feel like depression is just part of me,and then when im not feeling as down its not because i no longer have depression,its just because at that time I'm better able to cope with it. I hope this makes sense, I'm really not great at explaining these things lol.
Just curious to see what others think
