Why is it that we can talk about the feelings we've never had as if we have?

Or, rather, why does it seem like everybody has felt everything, but I continue to feel nothing at all? Every day I try harder to become visible once more, but my efforts are gone unseen. I feel as if I am transparent, or 2D. Nothing but a papercut in the land of steel skin.

Weather what we read is mere fiction or prideful history, Depression is a real thing that damages and sets back real people on a daily basis.

Weather you believe it to be fake or a controllable emotion, the reality that you are inherently wrong will still be there. People will continue to die because they aren't well. And you ignoring it won't make it go away. 

This is a story about you, if it applies, and somebody in your life if it does not. Depression is an invisible killer that can be caught if you lock away your ignorance and swallow your pride.

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
