Holy cow, it's Crabman, from My Name is Earl

I miss that show. It was uplifting, with a very positive message with no religious undertones

I liked being able to laugh and have a positive feeling at the end. Earl was a terrible person at the beginning but, as he grew and completed his list of contrition, the other people on the show became better people, a rising tide floating all boats

Back to the topic, I know it is hard to even admit depression. We are all subject to the "other people have it worse, maybe I am just bringing it on myself"

We need to stop seeing mental illness as a character flaw, a weakness in the person and for what it is, a chemical imbalance that can and should be corrected

If you were suffering from scurvy, would you say "I guess other people have worse teeth and joint pains, I had best not admit this or eat a mess o' oranges"

I am facetious at times but always honest

We all need to stop wishing for a better day and getting the help, no matter how hard it can be

(Caveat: I feel like my most recent low may have ended earlier today so I am feeling not too bad. Hope it lasts)
