    It is all in your head, but it’s not at all easy to fix. The brain’s perception of reality is all we have, and when that perception is skewed it can be very hard to find something to help un-skew it.

      That’s what he is saying in a bad way. The people in the comic are technically right, but since you think you deserve the punishment, you are stuck. If you manage to get away from that negative thinking, you’ve done the biggest part of getting out of depression, and from there it is easier to do the rest without the destructive self esteem.

      He should’ve used more words.

        The people are not right because they don’t see the “hand” as a serious problem worthy of attention.

        That’s what he is saying in a bad way.

        Just because half the people here don’t understand it doesn’t mean irony’s bad.

        Others should have used more brain.

          The irony if being stuck because of yourself isn’t bad, he just worded it badly.

          It’s easy to interpret his message as negative because of depression, which is doubly ironic given the context of this conversation.

            He?! I’m not going to be taking lessons in working from someone who doesn’t know who he’s talking about.

              Didn’t notice you were op, my bad. Also I’m not trying to teach you a lesson, I just tried to clarify your message for others.
