Do people always want to get better from depression?

People who have depression sometimes feel that it's normal to be in this situation and they feel safe in this way; However, if somebody helps them to understand that they can get over it, they probably will

Truthfully? Yes and no. The reality is that not everybody can be saved, and sometimes, not everybody wants to. Sometimes people cry out for help, but recovery from depression takes a lot of hard work and dedication, and for some people this is scary. Some may have fallen into a routine, where they can justify failures on their part on their depression and losing the scapegoat is a frightening prospect because, in turn, it requires them to take responsibility. While everybody might want to get better from depression, when faced with the road to recovery and challenged to walk the path, even with help at hand, there are some who will choose to simply remain where they are. There is, for them, a comfort in the familiarity of their mind.

Some people do, some dont, they have gotten really used to the sadness that they prefer it, they like being sad, feeling helpless, feeling empty, because they feel its better than having hopes and being let down.

Yes and No . Depression is like a high energy vortex it keeps pulling you down and down so much so that after a while most people just seem to accept that they're depressed and that nothing is going to get better ever . Here in comes an individual's will and positivity and more often than not his environment , mostly these three factors help an individual overcome depression . While some try and strive to overcome depression , others often give into it.

Not necessarily always, and people can definitely feel that way for some period of time and then change their mind (I have). Sometimes the feeling that you can't get out of your depression makes you almost embrace it, or give up, or just accept it. You can lose the desire to come out of it, often thinking, "what's the point?" I guess the point being, if you know somebody who doesn't want to come out of depression, it might not be the best to push them. Be there and be willing to listen and offer support, but there's a decent chance telling them they need to get better, or being frustrated and asking why they don't want to get better, will just make them feel worse.

Some people do because they realize the harm in it all. It's never okay to feel bad about yourself or anything else, and it's not okay to think you'll always be stuck like that. Some don't really want to get better because it's just something they're used to, like a cycle almost. But there's always something to break that cycle.

Some people grow use to the feeling and find it comforting. To the point where they'd rather be in this state instead of get better, because sometimes getting better seems so hopeless and just accepting your feelings is much easier.

I do believe people always want to get better. Some just lose hope when fighting their battles. It's not always a matter of want, it's a matter of strength and faith.

Some people are not always happy , or their afraid to be happy , but it's okay one day you'll be okay.

No, not always, and that's ok. People need to move at their own pace in order to get better for themselves. Even if they don't want to get better, they should be encouraged, not forced.
