Back to the Past
I’ve had this blog since November 2013, which makes it just over six years old. I started it as a final-year university student, while recovering from a particularly bad depressive episode.

Why Living Time?
It has been exactly a week that you’ve known me (and me some of you). And the time has come for me to explain the title of this blog: Living Time. I hate naming things. It’s like buying shoes. You know when you’ve got the right pair the second you slide your foot in one.…
