Writing, writing

She told me to write.  She thinks I have a unique perspective.  She thinks it will help.  

Me.  

The label I've been given is Major Depressive Disorder.  And I'm stuck.  Pills, Talk Therapy, Group Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy; nothing seems to move the needle.

No, I don't know why, where, when.  Like the ghost of a familiar scent, there's something insidiously seductive about it; I've been here before & I'm happy(!?) to be back.  

I am being tricked, by my own brain, into feeling safe inside myself.
