Chronic depression always has me thinking that exploring the world has ended for me even before I get started. It's a gloomy and gruesome state to be in but viewing it as something that will pass helps a bit, although it may continue to remain in the background of our consciousness for a long while.
Get much better soon :)
I don't think it really passes, and that's why it's been defined as chronic.
Right. It lingers for a long while. But sometimes, it does receded into the background of our consciousness and becomes less pronounced compared to when it first started to get noticed.
