The worst part of depression is everyone closest to you, the ones who could help, denying it and telling you about bootstraps.
I can't even be happy neeting.

The worst part is that it's true. You either wallow in reality or delude yourself into thinking bootstrapping will work, and it'll work, because the brain is shit. Even if the situation is ultimately not very different.

I had clinical depression for months, had insomnia and became malnurished and no one noticed. You need evidence to show you're really depressed. And sounds like your inner circle is uncaring; maybe confront them about it?

nobody can help my depression but god by giving me a new body and a second shot at life which won't happen so all I can do is wait for my demise while observing normies and wondering what being happy and hopeful feels like

antidepressants are a blessing, anon.

My inner circle are my boomer parents whose philosophy is that work is the ultimate moral good. My mother coped with depression for years (still does actually, I can see it) by telling herself it doesn't exist. So when I become lethargic because I just can't bring myself to care about anything, they take it as an insult when I ask for a pick me up. I know better than to complain to them or ask for help, because it's always my own fault I'm suffering.
My friends are never available except for the one who is always begging me for money.
So I really have no one to talk to.

That's shitty of them.

I'm sorry to hear that. Maybe branch out? A change of environment is what made it better for me. Also consider therapy for a listening ear or get on anti-depressents if it's chronic and not situational. Moving out (if you're capable) can also help by getting some privacy and independence. Also make new, better friends.
