Dude, that is the way I feel every depression.

The way I see it that is the real mental "illness". As I said to a friend once I think that your regular run of the mill situational depression is like "my life is such a mess. I just want it to be over". But a Bipolar chemical depression can be like "my life is so wonderful. I just wish it was over I can't stand it. WTF!!???"

Obviously this is a huge over simplification but it has helped friends understand that it isn't the circumstances that are the issue. (Though they certainly can trigger blah blah blah)
Thanks for this!
