When I am down, I may still talk to people, but someone who looks at life as being great isn't what I want. Depression likes to feed itself, so I think that having someone with a good disposition around "makes it angry" so to speak. I hope this makes some sort of sense. I would just give it some time to see if he comes back around. He might just need a little space until the dark clouds lift.

I really have to agree with this. I do not want try to garner the extra energy to try to look on the bright side, or to try to make my miserable state sound better than it is. During an episode, the episode is all consuming, (at least for me), and anything else really takes a back seat.

If a person has no energy to bathe, prepare meals, or even get out of bed, friendly communication with others goes out the window.
