I just read this on Reddit (about depression) and it really lifted my spirits:

"What a beautiful curse. What an injurious gift. What a horrible yet elegant privilege to know and understand all emotions so intensely...so deeply. Others will only be able to experience half of what you do, and only half of the time do you wish that you could be like them."

Link: https://www.reddit.com/r/bipolar/com...oice_as_aging/

Have a great day, everyone! In the words of Tom Haverford, "Treat yo self."

I needed this right now --I've been feeling weak with my depression and this makes me feel stronger and fills me with the words to describe how I feel, instead of feeling deaf and dumb (to use an old-fashioned term).

Thank you for this post, just what I needed to see right now as I'm also feeling down in the dumps.
