Hey.
I'm not sure if I will get many responses to this, but anyway.
I have major depression, PTSD, Social Anxiety. What I would like to know is this: is it.. acceptable? (right word??)- to still have very dark thoughts, and to like or prefer dark art and bands (nothing too extreme, but borderline maybe), 7 years after your trauma/event that triggered your major depression/ptsd etc.??

I know that people can suffer for years with nightmares off and on (which I get, but that does'nt matter), but the rest? Am I 'normal' in this sense?
