It makes sense to me. For me, I feel like my depressed self is almost a different person. When I see how I am acting, I am embarrassed and irritated that it takes over my behavior. I keep fighting it in small ways and hoping it leaves, but maybe that is similar to the ducking instead of swimming back to shore.
