    It’s truly special people who actually do everything they can to help you get better, everyone else just assumes that you’re dealing with something personal and that you’ll sort it out yourself. Part of it is boundaries, like nobody really knows what another person is going through or what the root cause of their depression is, and you have to get really real with a person to find that out. Most of the time it’s your own personal labyrinth that you have to find your way out of.

      I can certainly see how that would be enigmatic. In my instance I have tried to communicate this but doing so further would feel like begging and annoying in general: which I suppose my existence feels to me at a base level.
