Not such a good idea after all

So say­ing I’d do NaBloPoMo this year, or at least this month of this year, wasn’t such a great idea after all. I’m still bat­tling the lat­est depres­sive episode, and that means that my cre­ativ­ity is shot to hell at the moment. Every time I think of writ­ing, I real­ize it’s likely to turn into a major bout of kvetch­ing. Who wants to read that?

So I don’t blog at those times. I’d rather remain silent, or at least write it in a pri­vate journal.

For­tu­nately dur­ing my tem­po­rary silence a cou­ple of ideas have snuck into my brain and started per­co­lat­ing. So maybe I’ll come out of this enough to write some­thing use­ful, non-​kvetch-​ing, worth­while shortly.

    I’m sorry you aren’t feel­ing well, but glad to hear that you are writ­ing — if not online.

    I have to rec­om­mend The Depres­sion Book: Depres­sion as an Oppor­tu­nity for Spir­i­tual Growth — I found it very help­ful when I was hav­ing problems.

    Hope you feel bet­ter soon.

    Depres­sion and I are long-​time acquain­tances, sad to say, and this visit, too, shall pass in the full­ness of time. How­ever, I didn’t know about that book, Robin, so I am def­i­nitely going to check it out. Thanks for the recommendation!
