I was going to complain about how I feel, but I'm lacking so much in motivation that I don't even feel up to doing that.

When will this depression pass?

And don't say "when you let it" because that'll just piss me off.

I need to find a new addiction. Something productive. I need to do a lot of things. I need to actually start working on doing those things that I need to do.

So, in the past, I know I've tried to help out by giving you little tidbits from my own experience about being happy and blah blah blah. Well, as I've learned this last few months, it doesn't work when someone just tells you "stop and smell the roses." Or "go out and enjoy something!" It just sounds vague and lacking understanding, and vague and lacking understanding sounds like bull shit. Because I wondered for a while if I was actually, legitimately depressed...but I don't think I was. Things are getting better. It took an epiphany for me, not sure what it'll take for you. BUT I can say that I hope it passes soon, and sorry if that pisses you off but get over it because that's the truth :)

depression does in fact pass "when you let it," however, i feel that it takes much more motivation than just wanting it to go away. a new addiction would definitely help. just don't let it be farmville.

Maybe you should try lightbox therapy, vitamin D is a big helper.

Actually, I've been taking St. John's Wort for my winter depression and have undergone some natural light therapy, along with actual therapy.
So, in essence...I get how annoying it is for people to try and motivate you. If it's actual depression, it just ain't that easy.
With that said, good luck. :]
