And of course I'm going to drag you into my world view on this and that is one of a man who sees this world through the eyes of his depression.  He is informed by his depression.  However this man also feels great and expansive joy at times. Often more than once per day does he see or feel something that is beautiful to his senses and feelings.  He is also informed by this.  It's not a black and white issue.

But when this man views his own suffering and the suffering of his friends and acquaintances and then the world via the media or books etc. He comes to a conclusion that however much he might love his species (in fact because of it) and the world of culture he sees that there is terrible suffering going on even as he responds to this post continuing at all costs is not worth it.  This is not something I'm guessing about. And a world where this type of suffering happens, even if it were to a relative handful (which it is not) is unacceptable and not worth the joy of the rest.  He concludes that the extinction of his species is the greater good.

Depression is not the wrong way to see.  It is a way and within it is often much beauty and great love for what can never be.  The depressive often flies very high above the ground and their feelings may be of such intensity that in his/her moments of joy they far exceed the norm.

That's my story and for now, I'm stickin to it.
