Andrew Solomon Quotes About Feelings

• Es importante no reprimir del todo los sentimientos cuando se está deprimido. Es igualmente importante evitar discusiones terribles o expresiones de indignación. Debe mantenerse alejado de comportamientos emocionalmente dañinos. La gente perdona, pero es mejor no agitar las cosas hasta el punto en que sea necesario perdonar. Cuando estás deprimido, necesitas el amor de otras personas, y sin embargo la depresión fomenta acciones que destruyen ese amor. Las personas deprimidas suelen clavar alfileres en sus propias balsas salvavidas. La mente consciente puede intervenir. Uno no está indefenso.

• I grew up feeling that to be gay was a tragedy.

It seemed that this condition would leave me with a vastly reduced life.
