It hurts too much... And now i cant be on the level of others anymore... people dont realize how happy they can be for all those things they had in youth. I had nothing.
Hi Damiann,

I think you might find these notes to be helpful

Depression is a sneaky, sneaky thing, but it doesn't have any real power, just like the past has no power over you except for what you think and remember now.

Your story is reminding me of a r e a l l y bad movie I saw recently called Total Recall (the recent one, not the Schwarzenegger version). The plot is that if you're unhappy with your life, you go into this shop and they inject whatever memories into your brain you want. So you can walk out an unhappy person (I guess) who, however, remembers that they were a famous rich person or a spy or an astronaut or something with lots of friends.
