Thank you for saying so, Rod. I figure there may be 2 or 3 lurkers who'd be interested in a show or article, even if very few post about them later.
I am leaning away from the idea that conflictedness can ever be a cause of depression, even if they seem to occur together. Mental conflict is inherent and inescapable. I am beginning to suspect that our brains were made to maintain such conflicts, not to resolve them.
I'm not sure that conflict saps creative resources, either. Perhaps a struggle to resolve some scary inner conflict could drain creative resources.
