If you want out of this world, if you are depressed, it could very well be that you can't deal with the pain of, not only your own life, but others around you. Some people feel ALL things deeply. You don't seem like one of those people. Your a lucky one!

I agree with this.
I used to be a very upbeat, positive person when I was younger. THEN the world fucks you up the ass, and I have become increasingly darker/depressed and more pessimistic over the years. However, to try and get out of these moods -- for me -- is damn near impossible. Every time I turn around (as if I am not at my own wits end) I have friends or family who are experiencing the same exact setbacks and my heart goes out to them...but at the same time, it is just confirming to me that life sucks and there is no way around it.
This is the way I feel, and I certainly didn't make me feel that way.
If it's not something within me...it doesn't really matter, because I am so affected by the people around me.
