Death and Depression

Death and depression. They seem to be twins they stick together. One instigates and the other follows. It's like they come in a package. Death brings depression and often times deep enough depression brings death. It's weird how the feed off each other. It's like one can't happen without the other tagging along. When things come in packages to your home most of the time your excited to rip it open and see what you got. In this instance this package is one you wish was never sent. Death and depression also have a cousin. Sympathy. This package is even harder to recover at least with death and depression you know what to feel. How do you receive sympathy? When people tell you they are sorry for your loss. Makes me think I have some look on my face that says I hate the world. I simply reply with an it's ok. Sympathy makes me feel uncomfortable like the world is waiting for me to crash and burn. Like people are just staring at me waiting for me to shed a tear so they can hug me and make themselves feel like they are being useful like they are helping in some way. When these things are delivered to you you have no choice but to relieve them no matter how many pieces the package has.
