Life in ruins

I had originally intended to create a blog to put my thoughts into writing. So that I could analyze it, have others analyze it, get better at articulating the things I believe, and hopefully find some sort of growth through all of it. However, now that I have gotten around to actually making it, other things have cropped up in my life, some new, some old, that have slightly changed the direction of this shit.

I have come to a new chapter in my life. Summer is over, friends are leaving me (perhaps some for good - although I certainly hope not), and I have found a new job. It seems that new segments in my life are always accompanied by hard bouts of depression. Depression is something that has been weighing my life down for several years, culminating in serious suicidal thoughts and antidepressants last summer. I hope that because of the recent changes in my life, I can use this blog as not only a therapeutic medium, but also as a place for me to write about things in my life and mind in the chance that they resonate with other people.

Bare with me. This is new.
