I barely knew her, but I tried to help. I PMed her once when she was having a bout with depression and kept checking my PMs, but a response never came and I stopped looking.
I even live in the same city.

Wanda, do you have any idea what it's like being English? Being so correct all the time, being so stifled by this dread of, of doing the wrong thing, of saying to someone "Are you married?" and hearing "My wife left me this morning," or saying, uh, "Do you have children?" and being told they all burned to death on Wednesday. You see, Wanda, we'll all terrified of embarrassment. That's why we're so... dead. Most of my friends are dead, you know, we have these piles of corpses to dinner.


but yeah, i get the feeling :sympathy:

i think if you have not experienced mental illness, it can be difficult to understand how it makes up reasons for why you do not deserve/need help, and how difficult it is to get past that when you barely have the energy to get out of bed, eat food, etc
