I think this is a big part of the problem. We're all so spaced out from one another a lot of the time, distances away from friends, family etc and don't realise how being so scattered across a vast distance affects us. It's not necessarily as though anything bad has to happen for depression to take place but the little things that wear you down over time.

>Any drug that has an immediate effect of relieving depression through some dopamine kick will always kick back, and end up actually causing more damage in the short term if you decide to quit.
Always thought the same way, in that they're inherently artificial and any disruption to supply will fuck you over even harder than if you hadn't had them in the first place. This is another layer to the bigger issue for me, seeing how un-real and artificial everything around us seems to be - our 'media', our 'food', our 'standard of living' all driven by bubbles - and that absolutely no-one seems concerned by it. How we could all be marching towards an imment collapse and have absolutely no idea that the curtain is not about to fall, but has already fallen.
