A Blog post by someone who has never written one before…
Well, Fuck.
— The Jedi Padawan children in Revenge of the Sith, probably
The idea to start a blog had been in my head a while now, circling my brain not dissimilar to Jaws. Hopefully this doesn’t blow up in my face.
I’m not really sure who’ll read this, if anyone. I think it’s more for me to have something tangible to vent/ externalise/ quantify things somewhere other than inside my head.
The blog will be primarily used for:
-ramblings/ ruminations on depression and living with it.
-posting pictures I paint, which I normally do as a way to externalise negative feelings in order to better process them.
-sharing anecdotes about my job. I work as a prison officer, but am not willing to disclose where or for how long. Names etc will be changed, and I won’t be telling you mine.
So really I guess it’s a blog about my life, without actually telling you who I am.
Definitely doesn’t sound mad at all.
