No one sized fits all approach to depression

I'm somewhat taking the piss with the subject.

I'm thinking about medication and stuff. I was irregularly taking antidepressants for a couple of weeks till last weekend. Since then I've come off and been smoking skunk all day.

It's fucking great. I'm isolated. I'm unhappy without low mood. I stink. Not showered in days. 5. I'm in the park partially because I can't really be around people when I smell like this. But when I see people I manage to shower.

I've been off skunk for a while. Too long. On Monday I scored some and the last few days...well I've relaxed and I've eaten. Loads.

I've not spoken to anyone. 2 emails, the last of which made me realise I'm feeling better.

I wrote to a friend of mine about the joys of being in a park, drinking wine, smoking skunk and unemployed. He would envy what I have. Funny. All I want to do is get back to work.

Life. Its a funny old thing. For the first time in a very long time I remembered my life isn't so bad. It hasn't felt like it and I may not remember it long but...well...for this moment in time I have something we can all agree is a bit like happiness.

About Me

We It comes in part from an appreciation that no one can truly sign their own work. Everything is many influences coming together to the one moment where a work exists. The other is a begrudging acceptance that my work was never my own. There is another consciousness or non-corporeal entity that helps and harms me in everything I do. I am not I because of this force or entity. I am "we"
