what does lack of prejudice have to do with self-actualization?
not prejudice as in racism but prejudice as in beliefs or judgements which prevent you from seeing the objective truth of things

you do realise though that when you tell depressed people they need to motivate themselves that this is like the main thing they cannot do right

maybe instead of going to the gym to lift useless bits of metal you could go round to the houses of depressed people and lift them out of bed

i am going to patent this if i ever get out of bed!!!

or you know, build houses to solve the housing crisis. or do an hour's manual labour to fix the industrial / manufacturing deficet in the economy. or farming. or basically anything except pay through the nose to indulge your narcissism

(It starts with one)
One thing I don't know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
(All I know)
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
(It’s so unreal)
Didn’t look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on but didn’t even know
I wasted it all just to watch you go

I kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to be will eventually be a memory of a time when...

I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter

its like they are speaking to me like they know my pain

who is this poet

depression is not the absence of happiness it is an overwhelming negative emotional miasma that prevents you from doing what you need to do

imagine your guiltiest secret. now imagine you get an anonymous blackmail note saying they are going to tell everyone. imagine how you would feel walking round with that hanging over you. wondering who is about to betray you. who will stick with you when they find out.

now imagine there is no secret and no blackmail but you feel like that anyway

that is the difference between sadbrains and just having a bad day / week

your sex drive can go up as well as down with depression so maybe it is the depression not the prozac

or maybe if your life feels empty you are pursuing the one avenue of unambiguous joy left idk
