> As someone who's roughly your age (and who's been unwell since 17 or so), this is something I invariably try not to think about, but it's true . . . at this point, even if I do get better in my 30s, the amount of time and life experience that's been lost to this disease is enough to turn my stomach. It almost feels like the prospect of getting well is as fraught with conflict as remaining depressed.
>Hm, yeah, that's really the thing.. of course I will (or I would) have a somewhat different view on that once I get out of depression, but still... Depression, and particularly long-lasting depression, with an early onset is really so much different from "regular" depression.. and I admit that sometimes I do feel like it's worse, even though that may be unjustified. It's not by chance that so many people look back on these years as the best part of their life.. :(
