Is it the depression talking, or is it just realistic thinking?

The people around me are always telling me to go out and live my life, I'll regret it later if I don't. No. I didn't ask to be here, I'm only here because my parents wanted me. Once they are gone I'm clocking out, why would I stick around when I'm no longer wanted or needed?

I thought the exact same and that's not joking .
People being telling you do this and do that with your life , run here and run there and that's what will make you happy and it doesn't.
It only creates more anxiety.
I'm a loner most of the time and I like it that way but I said what you said Iif anything happens to my parents I want out as well , but your spirit won't leave that happen my friend cause your spirit will drive you to hold onto your spirit .
It's not depression you have .
It's yourself finding yourself and that takes a lot of pain and tolerance. When the tolerance kicks in it's the thoughts that your thinking that your believing are making you depressed .
It's like saying I have no one left but your never alone there's always a spirit with you .
In the darkest hours you are still able to hear
