Tbh who wouldn’t be depressed after all this shit he was put under. Like MC is literally being raped all the time by ML that is pretty much OP and MC can’t even off himself cause his sibling could be in danger. Like jeez this is so annoying, like the deception of MC developing some twisted connection towards his oppressor (ML) is so accurate, cause like MC knows he’s being manipulated, assaulted and used, which is wow doesn’t happen in manhwas these days. He’s aware of his situation but the little warmth that he received from ML subconsciously replaces all the fucked ass shit he did to him. Like I hate the fact that there is no change in MLs actions, like yea he realized he literally traumatized MC, but byach way toooo late. author what are u doing…….
I think he's depressed, those are the symptoms: he doesn't eat, he doesn't want to socialize, he pushes away his loved ones, he stays in a dark room... the fact that he says he doesn't want to die and that he thinks about what he'd like to do is positive, at least he is not lettting himself go completely... I guess
