Self-loathing is a result of indifference No feeling involved
Depression is an implicit value judgement Faced with limits restrictions and stipulations One feels powerless It is a result of a change in mind- not a love for feeling down or sorry for oneself nor is it necessarily a negative feeling The emotional component is what is recognized as depression. So one does not love to feel down but is dealing with the facts as they present themselves This means one has something to offer Not just irresponsible mindless wishing

Well I wouldn't have described it that way but I suppose I was addicted to self-hate, self-pity, sadness, cynicism for much of my life. I've always been negative. I was born that way (my mother told me that my first word was No.) I used to celebrate the drama of my melancholy. I didn't own a single item of clothing that wasn't black. The clothes in my closet looked like mourners lined up at a funeral. I listened to dark and depressing music (from classical to alternative/goth). I frequented dark clubs. I wrote morbid poetry. I listened to Skinny Puppy and Beethoven. I painted pictures inspired by Edvard Munch and Egon Schiele. I read Sylvia Plath's The Bell Jar. I would weep openly. I would shriek. I shut myself off from the world wrapping myself in a cloak of inconsolable despair & nameless rage...
but I'm feeling much better now! I haven't totally let go of the dark side of myself, but I have learned to lighten up somewhat. To be more positive. To love myself, others & the world. To see the beauty of life rather than the decay. I am still a poet, an artist, now also a musician. I am still dramatic & emotional but I have given up my addiction to sadness. I still cry on occasion but I allow myself to laugh, to open myself up to the world instead of hiding from it in a self-constructed tomb. I came out of my shell. I bought a house in a new community & have changed my life in so many ways. I understand the law of attraction: what you put out there, you get back. When I was negative & expected the worst, life seemed tragic. Now that I am more positive & hope for the best, life is a romantic comedy. It's a matter of choice. I used to think that sorrow was something that just happens to you but it isn't it is something you choose to focus on & allow to absorb you. Sadness will always be a part of me & I still think my most powerful songs are the ones I write in the throes of despair. The difference now is that the sun rises the next day and I feel better. My heart is lightened. The difference now is that I love myself and I know that everything will be ok...

There are times when I don't want anyone consoling or comforting me, I just want to wallow in my own misery for a time. Then after a couple of days I'm finished.

Not all the time but sometimes it does feel nice to just wallow in self pity.
