Depression often means that you're okay to do stuff but only the stuff you want to do; not the stuff you ought to do or the stuff an ordinary person would do. So you blow people off but you spend hours reading, or you can't run errands but you're perfectly fine to play a video game. It kind of makes me a little sociopathic, and emulating a normal human response to life is also wearying.
Do you mind if I quote you on my Tumblr? I'd credit it to Sam Starbuck and link to the journal only if you wanted me to. If you'd prefer I not, I totally understand. I've done some blogging about making my way through depression myself and I thought this quote was a really helpful description.
