people really don’t get it

i love my daughter more than anything, but people seriously annoy the hell out of me when they act like i shouldn’t be depressed just because i have her. like yeah, she makes me happy, she gives me purpose, but that doesn’t magically cure depression. “your daughter should help you out of depression” lol okay? it doesn’t work like that. i can love her more than life itself and still struggle some days. people really need to stop acting like having a kid automatically fixes your mental health.
