Is it normal i don't want to feel better?

What is this feeling, after having depression I now know how to handle the symptoms and stop from feeling "sad". But at times I just want to let the sadness in, even though it hurts. Why and IIN?

    You have to allow yourself to be social and become happy again :)

    It's familiar, it's easier than working to feel better, it's relieving sometimes just to feel something pure even if it's pure pain.

    And/or on some level you still feel you have something to gain from it. Validation of what you've been through, emotional support.

    It's a weird druglike hold that depression has on a person. It's dangerous and will fuck up your life in very real ways.
