I've learned some things about people that never seem to change.
If you're depressed, people will pretend you don't exist. Whether that's because they don't know how to handle it or go about it, maybe. But it's usually because they don't want to spare their time for you.
If you're angry, people will go along with you. You suddenly become a spokesperson that they can feed off of. They become more active in your life or turn up more. They suddenly feel they can relate to you, and they bond over what you hate.
If you're happy and free, people will hate you. They'll rip and tear at you, trying to bring you down. They get jealous of your happiness, for they can't find it on their own. They want what you have and since they can't they do everything in their power to make you miserable.
And so the cycle repeats again...
