I've been on a non-linear upward trajectory for a while now. For the most part, this has been a pretty good week for me! Probably the best my mental health has been since.... Fuck, maybe a year and a half ago. It was one of the deepest depressions I've ever experienced. I mean, I was literally non-functional for months at a time during this latest chapter of my life, and I've constantly been worried at each setback during recovery that I might be slipping back into it. But during this week it really became clear that I've turned a corner.

Love and solidarity comrades. At my darkest moments I was 100% convinced I would never recover or have a good day again. Happy to report I was wrong about that.
