I've been a depressed person most of my life.
I must admit that I really have no life to begin with and truthfully I am not mentally able deal with harsh realities in life.
Because of that, I turn to reading fiction instead. It became a safe haven for me.
The years went on and I started thinking of the characters as if they were real. I'm thinking about them non-stop and became attached to them as if they were the most important people in my life.
I started losing interests with friends, family and all things that dealt with reality and I've been reading nonstop. Whenever there is a tragic or a bad event in a book I'm obsessed with, I become devastated as if it was real, like it causes me to lose sleep and I can't eat.
Real life tragedies doesn't even seem to affect me all that much anymore.
I guess I have no life to begin with and I just started creating my very own world.
I'm just curious if there were people out there like me. And can my sickness
still be treated?
