Depression and Godzilla
11 years ago
Depression is your own personal Godzilla, rampaging through your mind and body.
Much like the most famous Kaiju, you can’t simply kill depression, it never truly dies.
You can learn to manipulate it, draw it away from places you really don’t want it, perhaps even convince it to return to the sea before it ravages more than a few blocks, but it will always come back.
And sometimes you’ll fail, and it will do all the damage it possibly can, break you down from inside until it grows weary and returns to the sea.
Fighting it head on is often a hellish prospect, because it will turn every thought you attack it with against you, or simply shrug them off like machine gun bullets pelting its scaly hide.
The best you can hope for is to control its size, reducing by extension the damage it causes, but it will never be smaller than you, it will never be truly vulnerable.
Hating it too much and loving it too much can both lead to suicide. Because no matter how much you hate it, anything powerful enough to destroy it will almost certainly take you with it, or at least most of you. Love it too much, and it can grow large enough to utterly destroy you, and it by extension.

If you ever fall into a rut where it feels like you can't pull out of it, remember friends are there for you. I'd be more than glad to lend a listening ear and talk with ya as I can relate. I'm a puppy at heart and always willing to cheer others up.
