Because of the way we are (and various other reasons), it helps somuch to have friends who are real and care, who aren't just around to mollify you or something. They're the kind of people who can prevent depression. And that's worth a lot.
yes it is, it's huge. i've been fighting with that a lot lately. a most bizarre combination of happy to be left to myself, and depressed desolation of loneliness, and the running questions of "what do i actually think would fill this?" and "why do i think that would fix it?" the answer i came up with was in being a part of a whole, the chance to be a piece of something larger and outside of yourself.
That's good, to have those questions. They always help me in my (extremely mild or nonexistent) depression. And answers you come up with now don't always have to apply, so redoing the deliberate getting-out-of-depression thinking is possible. I don't know, that's at least nice for me to know.
Sorry this took forever to reply. ^_^
At the same time, you already are part of something larger and outside of yourself, but if you're actively seeking that, then you'll better know what exactly it is. I think.
