"bad feelings become more deeply woven into one's mind, after experiencing them for many years."

Brain changes/damages/weaving are similar concepts to me.

For many, the darkest aspect of one's personality are tolerable and minor part of one's life. I'd like to believe I can get there or at least grow enough (change/damage/weave) myself and my brain to live with my depression rather than feel stomped on by it.

I'd like to believe the subtle changes in the brain due to long time depression can be short circuited by drugs, a better enviroment, therapy, or time. I want to believe the brain is fluid enough to change for the better.

I don't like the idea (perhaps I am in denial) that I will needs 6 meds and therapy to feel okay for the next ten years just because that has been true for the last ten years.
