When you're happy you'll take all these precautions so you won't be sad You'll have all these --things--     set up so you can never "feel sad" or you can "take care of yourself" It's all well and good until you get sad. Because once you've healed           (or  -ing) you'll look around and say "golly gee, why didn't I do ANY  of these things I have set up like stations at a science fair?  That surely would have helped!!1!" (and yes, your naive mind deserves a middle school punctuation) Well, when you're all                                                           sunshine you fail to realize that even though creativity should help you escape your own prison of a skull, when you're depressed you just don't want to be creative You'd rather waste away than pick up a ******* pen. You tried. That's what counts, yeah?
