Wandering around Fitzrovia in the first few hours of a May morning, snapping photo after photo of the beloved BT Tower. One of my favorite towers in the world (along with all the planet’s other mid-20th century telecom broadcast structures). Still looking spectacular as ever, despite its disrobing at the beginning of the decade, when the defunct aerials were removed from the midsection—tempting to try to stretch that into a Van Gogh-losing-ears metaphor but anyway, the timelessness of the Post Office Tower’s vintage futurism is just immaculate. There’s some excellent period newsreels online of when Post Office Tower opened. Eric Bradford, architect, 1963-68. Photos May 2019 Bauzeitgeist.
My dad just told me that when he was my age he tripped on acid a lot and every time he tripped he found the meaning of life but by the time he was sober he had forgotten it. So, he told himself that the next time he tripped he would write it down. So he tripped again, and went and wrote it down and when he woke up he was so excited to see everything that he wrote so he went and opened the notebook and all it said was “orange juice”.

Secondary depression is essentially when you have depression secondary to another condition.. and in a lot of cases, the depression is “caused” by the disorder.
In the case of ADHD, its not uncommon for chronic under-stimulation to cause secondary depression.
