I've been avoiding LJ, mostly because introspection is a burden when life is stressful. My grandma is doing much better and seems to be recovering at a good clip. She might be out of the convalesence home within a month. Hugs and thank you to everyone who expressed support and concern

No one ever turns it around and says, depression might actually be a burden that weighs down the artistic mind. Imagine Van Gogh rising to an even more productive artist without his depression. And what would have become of all our genius artistic minds if they'd all been treated with Prozac?

You should read Peter Kramer's latest book, Against Depression. This is exactly what he says.
