This Is What Social Distancing With Depression Looks Like
I’ve been seeing a lot of memes recently about COVID-19. Well, we all have. It’s everywhere, viral even online. But, specifically, I saw a meme that said something like “how sad is it that my life hasn’t changed at all since I started self-isolating”. A joke for introverts, I’m sure. But it felt true to me in this deeply uncomfortable way.

Overcast in Ithaca
Sometimes it is already cloudy when I wake up. I'll look out my window at the white oblivion outside. I cannot see the ground or any of the campus buildings. While I get ready, I live in a single room in limbo, a small universe occupied by myself, my slumbering roommate, and my cup of hot coffee.

How to deal with sufferers of depression.
Image by Anemone123 I have been blessed with the fact I've never been depressed nor suffered from depression. Believe me, it is a great fact of my life to have never been cursed with this debilitating disorder which is affecting millions of people. As I write these words, people everywhere are enduring depression. Luckily, I've never been on of those people.

The Battle with Depression in the Mornings
My own struggle with Depression started long before I was aware I even had it, although something did always feel kind of empty, a little numb in circumstances where "normal people" felt a lot more joy, or pain, etc. Something was off. In the years preceding my High School days, my sleep health was probably the biggest sign. Days would turn into weeks and my summers would quickly pass. The signs were there, but we didn't know much about these things in my family.

Putting A Person Together
Welcome! I've spent the last ten years allowing depression to damage every aspect of my life and I've had enough. I've decided to record evidence in my own words that I can put my shit back together, and I'd love if others got something out of it too.
