Taking A Break From Writing

Taking A Break From Writing

I’ve been blogging since Feb 17, 2015.  My first post was Do Or Regret: The Choice Is Yours

I’m no longer sure if I want to continue writing about mental health, culture, and society. Or about anything at all.

I’m mentally tired of everything and need plus want to rest. So I’m taking a break from writing altogether to recalibrate my mind. And hopefully, not feel actively suicidal. Depression is bad enough by itself…why does suicidal ideation have to exist as well?

PS Since I am losing a crucial source of income for I-don’t-know-how-long, please consider supporting me. If my writing has ever helped you and made you feel less alone, contribute whatever you can afford by clicking this link: paypal.me/mahevashshaikh. Indian readers, you can pay me via Google Pay. My UPI is shaikhmahevash@okhdfcbank.

Thank you and goodbye.
