    This explains all the people who react to someone else’s depression with, “Why don’t you just think positively?”

    My friend, if it were that easy for everyone, depression wouldn’t be a thing. When I’m off my Lexapro, literally any given topic can be driven to a depressing topic. Cute kitten pictures? Now I’m sad thinking of how short their lives are. Looking at flowers? Great, now I’m thinking about how many bees are dying. I can’t even look at the sky without thinking about space debris cluttering low Earth orbits or something.

    Thank goodness for anti-depressants. They’re the only way I can derail the sad trains of thought that my brain drives me down.






  • This reminds me of how my old dog used to like when you blew raspberries into her cheek. She’d push her cheek against your mouth to tell you she wanted more.

    It all started because my brother’s a prick who likes to piss off animals. He used to blow in dogs’ faces to see how they reacted (and is the only person our childhood dog ever bit, in her entire 19 years of life.) But when he tried it with my dog, she liked it. Eventually it turned into blowing raspberries into the side of her face. Maybe she liked the vibrations? Maybe she liked our breath? Who knows.

    Weird little pup, I miss her.
