It's not that hard to imagine why people leave food out. How is it so incomprehensible to you? Initially I was just mildly upset by the fact that you could even bring yourself to ask such a question, because the answer is so bleeding obvious. You think I left it out because I think it looks pretty? Because I like the smell?
I did not get actually upset until you said I was begging for sympathy, that's why I told you "fuck you". You are being dishonest and rearranging the order of what was being said to suit your narrative. Your analogy does not apply.

Of course depression is no excuse to avoid responsibilities. But often it is not enough to just pull yourself together, because the root of the problem is still present. This often leads to burnout or even deeper depression down the line. This is a reason why people might for example go to therapy.

What do you want me to say? "I left it out because I am a lazy and dirty disgusting and filthy slob." If that's the only reply you would accept, why do you ask? You clearly already know the answer, in that case. Nah, I gave you the honest answer that you asked for, seeing as "because my kitchen was a mess" was not a good enough answer for you.

Clearly you lacked a perspective which I saw that I might contribute to provide to you, which is why I answered the original question the way I did.

"threw a tantrum" lmao ok bro
