How can one achieve happiness when depression feels like home?

Re: Izzy H:
 Depression is no place to live & happiness isn't something one achieves. Take a step back & think about the good in your life. Think about the bad. If you begin to compare, that's where the problem starts. There are people who have countless problems or things that some might consider monumentally burdening, but as long as they have their certain things (kids, family, hobbies), they're able to overcome all the bad, no matter how disastrous. It can be so hard to just focus on the good, but that isn't what's right. Think about the good. Think about the bad. It isn't fair to force yourself to feel one or the other. You've locked yourself in the house that is depression, but that's not your home, and you have the key. Consider all things.
