A bit overdetermined whichever way you read it.

Depression for example can be reactive, and according to one shrink I spoke with years back, he'd be concerned about the sanity of someone in very bad circumstances who wasn't depressed in reaction it. So long as it's actual circumstances and not just negative attitudes that attempt to seize defeat from the jaws of victory.

I can't read something like this and not think of the character Delores from WestWorld. She started out saying "I choose to see the good in this world" and now she's devolved into an authoritarian ruler. Which reminds me of Christians I grew up with who had this rosy view of an ideal world with rainbows and unicorns if you're good / worthy enough but then there's this ruthless side that stops at nothing to have worldly power to bring that rosy world to pass, by force if need be ...

I've seen this before but today I did some research and found that it was written by a 12th grader. Seventeen-year-old Chanie Gorkin. Brilliant!
