When we experience depression, why are we so averse to doing things that will make us feel better? For example, we're too upset to go outside even though we know fresh air will (possibly) make us feel better. It's as if we're afraid of change? Or maybe it's pure laziness? Or maybe we have too much self doubt (e.g., "It's not going to make me feel any better.") ? I don't know. Maybe the answer depends on the person.

I can't even answer my own question, but I wonder about you guys?
