I had no doubt that Tiny he got depressed, but that was probably because he had nothing to compare it to. Still, what could I say? that I didn't just depressed - instead, it was like the depression was the core of me, of every part of me, from my mind to my bones? That if he got blue, I got black?

No matter how much they like you or love you, they don't want to hear it.
