I’m sorry Joan. It all feels like too much.

Here's why I'm depressed: the state of the world -- what's happening in the Middle East and Ukraine and elsewhere; the horrible rise of Fascism and the incredible fact that people in this country are not up in arms when witnessing the destruction of democracy and the real possibility that the Orange Clown Devil might re-inhabit the White House; the fact that my evil DIL won't allow my GD to be vaccinated for anything now, nor will she allow her to have any contact with us; the reality that my body no longer works the way I need it to work -- hell, it doesn't work the way it did yesterday! -- all conspire to have me in a depression that has only worsened over time. I hardly know what to get excited about these days, because I am overwrought about everything!!!
