My mom says that people who don't have "value" don't deserve to live and that "depression" is just an excuse for laziness. What's is your rebuttal for it? (sh.itjust.works)

The depressed, that's including you?

My guess is that you are depressed because you are constantly rejected. It's a gamble, but if you leave the rejection behind the depression could improve.

Also, showing the limit of power will change the power dynamics.

The unfortunate part could be that devaluating depressed people could be her attempt at making you abandon depression to make you happy.

So the rebuttal could be that it doesn't help.
