#disconsolate

Martin Blackwood – season 4 lonely I feel like Corruption and the Lonely get a lot of treats with the pandemic going on. As someone who thrives on independence and just doing my own thing, and becomes a bit of a hermit when recuperating, retreating into one's own space is not really a help, when being alone too much becomes the actual problem. So one of the lesson from the last two years, was to be more aware of my social needs and be more proactive about when to reach out for my friends and family. Or just make sure I plan in enough social meet-ups into my weekly schedule. The Lonely is definitely one of the powers I felt at times quite vulnerable towards. So I really feel for Martin here. Make sure to not get lost in the fog.

i’ve learned a lot more than this jess ever thought she’d know.

i’ve lived a lot longer than this jess ever thought she could.

i come back here and i wonder how i ever got over these feelings and these thoughts.

i have no advice to give because i have no idea what i did.

there is no magical cure for depression.

there is no way of knowing if you’re going in the right direction

i can only suggest that you find people who care for you just as much as you care for them.

and then you listen to them the same as you’d want them to listen to you.

and then help each other stay alive.

it’s a crazy world and we’re all on some crazy roads.

i’m older now and i don’t think my brain works the same now as this jess.

but i want her to know i’m proud of her.

we had some tough and lonely nights.

but i’m happy to announce- we survived.
