Why AM I Suddenly Unable to Write?
Well, I have been incredibly depressed for a few months…not good!
It has been over 2 months since I published anything on Medium. After more than 60 articles and stories and almost 1000 followers, you would think I would get my shit together and WRITE!
I wish it was that easy. Depression is like a dark ghost hiding in the shadows, waiting, waiting, patiently waiting for that hour or day or week or month to launch an attack.
I think my current bout with depression started with all the bad news this summer…MAGA for sure…always a good reason to be depressed! Ukraine next, just pure hatred for Putin and his relentless bombing. Grocery bills, gas, just about everything going up, no end in sight.
But the big one, the one thing I can put my finger on that hit me the hardest was the Mid Terms. Deep dread. I should know by now not to follow the mainstream media but I did it anyway and the RED WAVE was all over the news.
I am a Boomer and have watched the Republicans slowly but surely degrade our country for over 40 years. But never did I ever think Donald Trump would be the catalyst for the extreme danger that we were in. It seemed like we were going to lose the House and maybe the Senate and the crazies were going to take over the country.
