working the angles

obtuse, acute and T1D

Obtuse or acute?

The pain of depression can feel acute.

That’s the point - the point is penetrating.

At the same time?

Someone depressed with a chronic illness that will kill you without 180 medical decisions daily can feel like life is pointless - essentially life is obtuse.

It’s a sick irony that someone who has to poke themselves with needles all the time can feel like life is pointless.

It’s awful when it’s your child having that experience.

Love the people who love you

And give your kids a squeeze

Even if they are living like a cacti.
