Reply to "Anthony Bourdain"

Depression often has nothing to do with failures.  Though someone who already has depression can see many things as failures.

I saw a pretty insightful tweet thread from a gal after the Bourdain death.

To paraphrase...people often wonder why the victims didn't reach out or say anything to anyone about their thoughts or pain.  Depression changes your perception and it robs your ability to reach out.  Also robs your ability to network, to create or maintain any circle of friends or acquaintances. 

It's not sadness.  It's physical and mental anguish and it's a fatal level of apathy.  It can rob you of many things.
