I haven’t really been “online” since the start of the month largely because July is a really horrific month for my depression and with losing my job I’ve just been feeling pretty awful. It’s hard to be a human during times like this. I’m physically and mentally exhausted to the point of what feels like an unrepairable level. As I’m writing this, I’m laying here and struggling with my energy and breath already. I’m sorry to everyone who expects more of me.

The malaise of the mundane and discontentment padded against this world of extreme pleasure is daunting and captivating even three chapters in.
Meditation Rumination
Especially on nights like tonight where I’m not feeling particularly well, I tru to meditate or use a yoga nidra technique to calm my nerves & rest but lately getting physical tension out of my body has been nigh imposible. I’ve been wanting to explore meditation & body practices to release the sheer tension in my body, especially because I’m starting physical therapy again.
