- As we talked about in class, Ma's experience is a really complex one. Check out these two blog entries, written/drawn by a woman named Allie Brosh, about her experience with depression. Her experience isn't necessarily the same as Ma's, but it might give a different perspective about what dealing with depression might be like. Keep in mind: there's some challenging language here, and the topic itself is challenging and upsetting. If you have questions about these posts, or want to talk with me about them, just let me know! Or, if you don't want to talk with me, that's ok...talk with someone.
