-Everybody wants to be happy.
-Depressives don't. They want to be unhappy to confirm they're depressed. If they were happy they couldn't be depressed anymore. They'd have to go out into the world and live. Which can be depressing.
Probably one of my favourite movie lines. It rings so true. Every once in a while when I get into one of my funks I just feel like this applies. It feels familiar and almost comfortable to be in a place where you don't or can't function normally. I haven't felt like that in quite a while and I'm glad for it, but sometimes when I read a book or watch a movie that evokes those feelings, I do get some pleasure from feeling a bit morose.
