Oliver Sacks: My Periodic Table

7/27/2015

This past week I was fortunate enough to spend time in Northern Michigan with some fantastic friends. On our last evening we sat by the lake in the dark, listening to the water lap up onto the beach and watching some distant fireworks across the bay. We stared up at the stars. I feel doing this tends to open my thoughts up from my immediate reality, into a broader and more beautiful perspective. I really couldn't have wished to be in a more serene and happy place at that moment. I came across this this essay today by Oliver Sacks. It comforted me in a strange way and resonated with my recent experience on the beach so I thought I'd share it,

People don't get better just by saying out loud that they are not depressed. Some don't even improve at all with medications. It's very important that the main trigger or problem is being addressed properly. If It's something you can pluck out yourself from then do it fast before you allow even more damage to enter your system. If it's a situation you cannot change, then find ways to manage it. There are no short cuts here. People spend a life time looking for a cure. Take your time and try a little more research.
