Depression is certainly a struggle, one I deal with as well. It can be easy to stop caring, because it's safer than being hurt. But it's ultimately just a slower, more drawn out way of hurting yourself.
Think about your loved ones for a minute. Think about the people you care about, the people who have been there for you when no one else has.
Now imagine someone wants to hurt those people. Imagine someone wanting to utterly destroy them and wielding the power to do so.
Now imagine if you had the power to stop them. Imagine if it was as simple as standing up and saying "NO" to them.
What do you do in that scenario?
In that scenario, if it was as simple as saying no, of course Id stop them. I cant equate that scenario to voting because it isnt as simple as saying no. To continue with your scenario though, I have the power of a single no stopping someone from destroying loved ones, but if I dont say no, there are countless of others willing to say no to stop destruction from happening.
