I found myself losing interest in almost everything
I didn't want to do any of the things
I had previously wanted to do
And I didn't know why
The opposite of depression is not happiness, but vitality
And it was vitality that seemed to seep away from me
And so I began to feel myself doing less
And thinking less and feeling less
It was a kind of nullity
And then the anxiety set in
It's a sensation
Of being afraid all the time
But not even knowing
What it is that you're afraid of
It was just too painful to be alive
And that the only reason not to kill oneself
Was so as not to hurt
Other people
