I think that does a better job at expressing what I wanted to say.

No one chooses to be depressed and it doesn't have to be because something bad happened to them. You have a right to struggle, the right to harm yourself if it's what you choose to do.
Nothing intensely awful happened in my life until recently and I've still always suffered with worries, anxiety and pain. We can't control it at all. :/
