I love it!
I read part #1 of the comic some years (?) ago and loved it. This one is spot-on, again.
For me, depression is the single worst thing I experienced in my life. If I could pick to erase one thing from my life, either the years of depression or getting infected with HIV, I would chose the former without hesitating...
When I got diagnosed with HIV, one of my worries was that I would get depressed again. Thankfully, that did not happen.
