William Styron gets it.
I don't like to talk about depression because it's like talking about the chicken pox. Some of us have better stories about it than others, very few of us have absolutely no point of reference. But I've not heard such an accurate description of how depression feels until I heard this interview with the late William Styron from 1990 on Frrrrresh Air.

Damnit! Aural overload! I still haven't been able to sit down and listen to this all the way through, even though I've listened to all three of the podcasts. But, I'm listening at work and writing code at the same time, so I'm hearing but not retaining.
Anyway, I'm having a hard time getting past the first speaker - I'm not a regular NPR listener, but when I do hear something from them I can't stop listening to the speakers' breathing. They all speak so clearly, but that large pause between sentences and the always-loud intake of breath distracts me to no end. Shouldn't that be part of their training? No heavy breathing on the mic? Manlaw!
