My emotions swirl like leaves caught in the breath of a dust devil, and the only thing I can seem to hold onto is the anger.

It is important not to suppress your feelings altogether when you are depressed. It is equally important to avoid terrible arguments or expressions of outrage. You should steer clear of emotionally damaging behavior. People forgive, but it is best not to stir things up to the point at which forgiveness is required. When you are depressed, you need the love of other people, and yet depression fosters actions that destroy that love. Depressed people often stick pins into their own life rafts. The conscious mind can intervene. One is not helpless.

But feelings can't be ignored, no matter how unjust or ungrateful they seem.

To tell someone not to be emotional is to tell them to be dead.
