Being a good person…what does it entail? To help, to love, to laugh? What if you were helping Himmler at the concentration camps, what if you loved another man’s wife behind his back, what if you were laughing at a person with nothing left in life? Is that good?
She’s sucking the life out of me. She’s taken a straw to my shoulder and is slowly draining the mana out of my body. Such is the life of all depressed people; always complain of being alone, but always have friends who they desperately try to consume.
I guess it’s hard to blame them. They probably think that if their friends are having good lives then sucking them dry should be a good enough substitute for their own happiness.
I guess it’s a test of how good a person you are by how much you let them suck out of you. Being a good person is saying “would you like fries with that?” But as I’ve always said, being good to a person can never fully cure a person. When you fall on glass, you need to rip out the shards before you start to heal. As they say on Lost, “struggle is nature’s way of strengthening”

A nice piece of work once again old boy, truly worth the read.
In a quick response to your first paragraph, you would not be helping Himmler you would be hindering Jews, Gypsies, Gays, Invalids and the like. You would not be loving another mans wife you would be jelous of him for having her, and finnally you would not be laughing at the person you would be mocking them.
I would be careful how you treat depression and other related issues it seems to me you do not consider her side of it from anymore then a looking in perspective based on guesswork, not nessasarily a good approach. It seems however that she is draining you, depressed people are draining to experience, but I think your stance on it in the end it to be a good person, when the correct one is to be the right person.
Just my opinion
