I'm glad you made with though.

Funny my own depression didn't really kick up until my living conditions got better

I've been working so hard and long to survive and provide that I didn't have time to think about myself.

Now I'm older and better off. Got time to breathe, maybe get a hobby. Then i look back at my life. To see many years wasted. No hobbies. No vacations. No friends.

I was just a drone for fucking decades.

Funny how bad the system is engineered for the lower caste. Makes me feel like cattle for the machine to feed the billionaires.

If I had the basic needs of survival to not struggle how much more would I have lived life instead of just survived it?
