Also, re: the idea of Hanners being deluded. It’s weird imo to insinuate I’d say that about an actual human being who was reporting their own mental health state. This is a piece of fiction that’s already explored characters having an unreliable sense of their own mental well-being (see Faye’s insistence she was fine when talking to Dora about her alcoholism and Martens sense of happiness vs complacency) so idk why it’d be weird to have some genre awareness when reading a piece of fiction. People saying and believing they’re fine when that isn’t the case has been a recurring thing here.

That's actually what most of the articles I found using Google said, they rarely use their stings because their pincers are so bad-ass. Looking at them, I reckon they must not taste very good because if they did, we'd be calling them Forest Lobsters or something like that.

That's because it's a recurring thing in real life.

Yep, I've made a lot of progress with my depression in the last few years.
I've also got a referral for more therapy coming because after a bad stretch recently I realized that I still wasn't okay.

I'm so with you, Brother. Winston Churchill called it his "black dog." Time and again he thought he'd run it off but the son-of-a-bitch kept on coming back.

"When you have a junkyard dog snapping at your heels, the best thing to do is to turn around and kick it in the chops."
I've got a few coping mechanisms. I find a place where I can scream and not be a nuisance and curse very loudly until I sober up. I go to the park and scream at the ducks (they deserve it... probably). I listen to Punjabi folk metal...

Doesn't always work, though. Sometimes you have to call in reinforcements.
Godspeed, my fellow depression warriors.
