    Truly. Hopefully this post judges people towards treatment; people want you, they want you to be better, they want to share their love with you.

    Me: terminally paranoid

    Uhhhhhh, people want to share their love with me??? No. That sounds suspicious as hell. It's a trap. What's their endgame? I know they aren't after me lucky charms, because that cereal is disgusting, so I never buy it.

    Still......these "people" sound demented in the head.

    I have a friend who is depressed but I sadly feel like I can't say or do anything to help, even his meds don't seem to help much

    As someone who has treatment-resistant depression: keep inviting your friend. Keep asking them for help when it makes sense to do so. Even if they cancel a lot or are quiet when they do show up. That's helping a lot.

    People need community.
