500th of a second

April, 1987 - just after parents' divorce, suddenly having heart palpitations every night, three months away from being driven to the UNC Student Mental Health Center for paralyzing depression, sleeping very late, yet very excited to see how it all turns out

And you'd just invited me to spend the summer with you in good ole New Jersey. I knew some of your woes, had no idea how rough you were having it then. You hid it well. Maybe if I'd lived with y'all in Grimes. I started to type that I wish I'd known the whole deal, but then again, it was probably better not to know.

Are you saying you're now in a similar emotional place?

(I'm not actually angling for another invitation.)

Sounds dreadfull. I'm glad to see from the photo that in spite of it all your morale was so good.

Glad to hear someone got an appt. at Student Health Psych. I was told they were booked and sent back to my cinderblock dorm room to play The Smiths/The Smiths over and over and sleep as much as possible in hope that it would all be over more quickly. Another reason they’ll never get a dime.
