I think I was the same years ago. It's like you hear these statements in a movie/on TV somewhere for example and one doesn't really think about it further, one just kind of agrees because it sounds feasible or correct.

It's like this rubbish that has been pushed out on TV all these years, that real men don't quit and real men don't commit suicide, you fight and fight till the end and you become a hero to the world. The truth is, our lives are nothing like the fictional storm-troopers on TV. Real people have real problems.

The problem with TV and movies are that everyone forgets that they are just movies/fictional stories. These things aren't real and don't represent real situations. We forget it because entertainment on TV is so realistic today. It's stories about seemingly real people in real lives and those things really have the power to output messages to the world.

I've definitely learnt over the past few years - question everything and test everything, no matter how trivial it may seem.

These "problems" like depression come into our lives to teach, to make us think and reflect, and redefine for ourselves. It seeked us because we are truth seekers deep down. We have the capacity to question and think.

It is only my opinion, but I think if you are a person that has never been through what we have, you are happy yes, but ignorant and immature and incomplete as a human being.

This is probably the weirdest thing anyone has said before, but I'm kind of grateful almost for having gone through depression.

I once was blind, but now I see.
