If you are happy with being depressed you are not depressed. You probably have just convinced yourself that you are depressed because you get attention

Sounds like self-pity
Rainman says u are right pal ' enjoy by smile ' i say it always.IT is the best way of cmng outta depression.Once u know ur enjoying it that means that u hv opened the doors 2 CLOUD NUM'BAH 9. UR life might be going slow and not the way u wanted but trust me pal it is slow and hasnt ended. Even i am enjoying a depressed dull life.Its in ur way how u hadle the pits-
whether 2 fall into and come out
whether u get burried
or u leap across it taking it as the bombay roads.

bye for now
How well do I know what you are talking about. Are you going to a psychologist for meds and counselor or social worker for counseling? I had been depressed for over forty years and could never find any help. When I was praying for death, I sought help. These two professionals by the hand of God, helped me to get on track, I also wondered if I were enjoying being depressed. After depression was under control, I realized that, that feeling was one of my symptoms of depression. Guilt was always a part of my life and guilt was an extreme part of my depression. You are doing fine. Keep up your treatment. Hope that your professionals are sent from God too. Get better.
