Paradox

If emptiness is the Big Nothing... how is it possible that if fills everything?

I wish I could go on leave. If there are stress leaves, are there also depression leaves? It somehow seems unfair that someone like me, who will never take a year off on maternity leave (because I've made sure that, physiologically, that's never going to happen) is not entitled to some other kind of leave -- like mental health leave...

I just so need to be away right now. You have no idea how hard it is just to pull myself out of bed every morning -- even on Saturdays.

This one's so bad I really am considering a trip to the doctor -- ME!

I just can't stand feeling this way any more.
