During times of Happiness we would make up for it; we would speak, as if trying to squeeze out all the words.
– Leonora Desar, “Catherine”
You know that feeling when you read something and think, holy crap, this person has seen inside my mind and understood it better than I! No? Just me? No problem. Leonora Desar gets exactly at the feeling of wanting to be with a friend through a period of depression while being depressed yourself, when just being there is the best way of communicating for both of you. For a story about depression, it’s anything but depressing.
