shakes, real simple...
Just keep reminding yourself (and let us remind you) that those thoughts are born in our depressed brains and are not a "cause and effect" based on reality.
Dare say, it is NATURAL to think those things... because that is what depression it... not because they have any bearing in truth.
It is very hard to believe that but keep reminding the "logic" part of your brain of this fact however and whenever you can... and when it is most difficult just try to trust us and accept what we say...
Just your "personality" on the board here makes me consider you a valuable friend. Any toxicity is the posion of depression clouding your rational process, not something that leaks out onto other people.
