I *frequently* reference the bipolar comic you had made when I am feeling like this, it’s helped me stay even a little hopeful even if it doesn’t make me feel better
Sometimes other people are unable to help me. A lot of my "storms" are like that. It's like trying to build a fire just to calm down for a moment. It sucks. It's lonely and scary.
But we are here for you if you need us, for what little we can do.
I often tell my friends, and myself suffer from a life time of depression. Your brain loves to torment itself and will generate more torment fluids to torment you more with because it is stimulating. So you need a flamebreak of some kind, a shock to break the cycle with a different type of stim.
Sometimes I find the best way to combat it is fictional high emotional moments. Like when Forest Gump sees his son for the first time and asks if his son is like him with so much genuine fear of that.
It burns out the emotional paths and gives the brain to stop and rest.
depressions a pain in the fuckin ass. but, even if it doesn’t feel like it, communicating how you feel, like with this, is great progress. we’re all proud of u.

I've been stuck there, too, know how hard it can be...
It can be so difficult
Support can at least help pull you out
