over a period of months, i cried my eyes out over some close friend of mine who didn't understand my perdition. his way is to draw away when other people are down; my way id to rush to them. if i had the time and money, i'd be in NYC to help out. but down here in my texan existence, i've poor object-constancy.
are suicidal thoughts the greatest threat to your life? they are mine. that puts it in such bizarre perspective, all the go-getter WTC people murdered for irrational and disgusting reasons--i try to read about them in the paper individually so that i can care more, but sometimes it just swings back the opposite way, because you know what they always say about the deceased..."he was always a hero" etc what have you, even though it may be true it just gets redundant...
do you find that depression is largely a selish/selfless illness? the feeling of not existing mixed with being obsessed with that feeling?
so right you are about impairment. they can look through my bag but will the neurontin kick in, will i make i through the day?
