For me, that's not 100% true. It's true that low self esteem doesn't LEAD to depression -- but for me, it can be a result of it. Because you DO notice that OTHER people are doing things like, y'know, showering, holding down jobs. and feeding themselves, and you realize that there's something fucking wrong with you, and that it must be because you suck.
