  I have a rescue cat. She’s the reason why I haven’t offed myself yet. She’s my life

    Your cat would want you to be happy. As long as you don’t forget to fill up the food bowl.

      As depressed as I get, and as much as I don’t want to do anything, I ALWAYS make sure my girl is looked after. Clean litter, water bowl full and food twice a day

        I don’t know you or how you’re feeling, but do you feel like you deserve the same consideration you give your cat when it comes to yourself?

        I’ve been depressed so I know there’s a solid chance that answer is no and you probably feel pretty settled about why, but ask yourself if you were judging someone you love (maybe your cat) by the same metric would your answer for them be the same?

        Depression is a real rough process, we’re rooting for you.
