You know when you think that you don’t have the right to feel upset because your life is perfect and you’re good at this or that, and you have so much to be thankful for, and that just makes it all worse because it means you’re a whiny, self-absorbed, ungrateful little bitch. Yeah, you know that?
Fuck that shit. Life is hard no matter what circumstances you are in. You can be ridiculously blessed and that doesn’t change the fact that when people yell at you, you feel like shit. Or that when you stub your toe, your toe fucking hurts. Or on a larger scale, that when you are depressed, you are depressed and everything is fucked.
So what if you are an ungrateful, whiny little bitch? So are non-depressed people, even if they’re not aware of it. Hating on yourself for being an ungrateful whiny, little bitch is pointless. It doesn’t change what you are, and it makes you feel even more like shit. Feel free to go ahead and do it anyway though because sometimes its entertaining in a self-loathing sort of way.
Life is hard because when you’re alive bad things happen to you. Whether they are small or large, they happen, and when you’re depressed they are all you see. You forget the good things. You forget the fucking boring but neutral things. You remember when people hurt you, and when you hurt them. So guess what, you could live a fucking perfect life with absolutely no mistakes and still be depressed. Because depression blocks out the good stuff, or makes it seem trivial.
Good stuff and bad stuff should have equal weight. Rationally, they are both the same. Depression makes bad stuff weigh more. Fuck that. That doesn’t make sense. Life is hard because bad things happen, and nothing changes that. But not only bad things happen. And even if the good things are temporary, they are still good and they have equal weight.
So fuck it. Wallow in self-pity if you want to. You’ve earned the right to feel miserable by being alive and having bad things happen. And the good things can still have their fair weight. Because they happen too.
