Depression good

If you shared how you truly are, the person you’re speaking to would be horrified; but in comparison to other days living as a depressed person, you’re doing better than usual.

Mom: How are you doing?

You: I haven’t cleaned my room in over a year, showered in 4 days, and I’ve had a student loan bill under my pillow for 2.5 months; but I took my meds, went to work, and mowed the lawn today, so I think I’m depression good.

Mom: Clean your room!
