No at some point you dont got to anything, you can just die from your disease. Would you tell someone dying of cancer they should have just tried harder?
Like why do you get a 2 year depression but you dont get a 10 year depression? What do you know about the disease that it makes sense to you to last two years but not ten years??
Maybe it won't be a 10 year depression if you start treating it at the 2 year mark
Maybe, are you a doctor that has an actual reason to believe this?
It's not like you're gonna drop dead if you try to take a walk. And if you have cancer you do chemo, right? You don't just sit down and go "welp, guess I'm gonna die".
Yes you do, that's the disease is!
