[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Illness always does this to me. It’s an inflammatory thing ([b]inflammation and depression are connected[/b]). Just be gentle with yourself. Don’t make any big decisions :)[/quote] Can you point to the science of this? Sounds right, and I'd like to learn more.[/quote] If you Google you’ll find lots—it’s a fascinating connection and not that well understood but I do not think it’s a controversial idea at this point. I read a book (possibly this one but I’m not 100% sure: https://www.amazon.com/Inflamed-Mind-radical-approach-depression/dp/1780723504) in which the author, a scientist, felt depressed while healing after dental surgery and finally put together that it was caused by the inflammation. All my life, my first sign of illness, even a cold, has been an existential dread that comes on very fast, so it was fascinating to me.[/quote] Thanks! I'll start there. [/quote]
