Is it normal for a chronic depressed person to be interested in mostly sad music, books, etc.? I’m just a little confused.

YUP. IT SUCKS! Don't read anything by Charles Bukowski or Emil Cioran! Don't listen to 'Street Spirit' by Radiohead or 'Sailing Away' by Jennifer Castle! Bukowski's writting kills me, and Sailing Away always gets me. It's frustrating as hell 😫
