📸 A Journey Through the Fog of Depression

Today started heavy. Depression does that—it numbs, isolates, and pulls like gravity. But I’ve learned through years of therapy, especially MBT (Mentalization-Based Treatment), that passivity feeds the darkness.

So I fought. Gently. I got up, told my loved ones how I felt, grabbed my camera, and walked. Not far—just through my neighborhood. But far enough.

I started with a black-and-white shot of crows over a church—still feeling the weight. Then, purple campanula—color pushing through the gray. At the museum gates, the structured lines mirrored the limits depression imposes. I saw old doors, one with a “poop scraper” from centuries past—a reminder that darkness was always part of history, and we’ve always found ways to clean it off. The next door, a symbol of resilience, built in the 1930s—a time of rebuilding.

Then came the Goldstrum, tall and open to the sun. I stood tall too. I felt the warmth. At Spoorpark, I watched people relax, ducks glide, a young coot close to me—a quiet connection. A boy gazed over the water in stillness. Just like me. Still. Strong. Present.

Photography helped me reconnect. If you’re struggling: talk to someone. Move. Create. It doesn’t fix everything—but it can make everything feel possible again.

Delain – We Are The Others

we are the others
we are the cast-outs
you’re not out there on your own
If you feel mistreated
torn and cheated
you are not alone
we are the others

Delain – We Are The Others

The murder of Sophie Lancaster occurred in England in August 2007. The victim and her boyfriend, Robert Maltby, were attacked by a group of teenage boys while walking through Stubbylee Park in Bacup, Rossendale, Lancashire, on 11 August 2007. As a result of the severe head injuries Lancaster sustained in the attack, she went into a coma from which she never regained consciousness and died of her injuries thirteen days later. The police said the attack may have been linked to the couple wearing gothic fashion and being members of the goth subculture.
