A whole year.
Longer than that, actually, but since everything's gone to hell, hey - who's counting anymore?
For anyone who is not aware, I've been managing to hold on the best that I can now that we have a goddam pandemic going on for the foreseeable future.
My teenage nephew who was just a month shy of his 17th birthday committed suicide a week ago. With a gun. He'd been suffering from depression and a change in his medication that he was taking for it pushed him over the edge for whatever reason. I think a certain virus which he had had some time prior to that may have also had a hand in it. The entire family is devastated; this was a good kid who in spite of the world going wrong had a promising future ahead of him.
I am Not Okay for a variety of reasons, not least of which being the abovementioned. But I'm hanging on any way I can. I don't know what else to do anymore.
