There is definitely a direct relationship between my depression and my anger. The more depressed I am, the more angry I am. The more angry I am, the more depressed I get. It's a vicious cycle that includes people.

It's not that I lack the energy to try to be nice to people, it's just that I don't *want* to be nice to people. People make me angry. Being angry fuels my depression. And so we're going in yet another endless cycle.
