I've been so wrapped up and immersed in my MDD for a duration of years, that I nearly forgotten to pay more attention to world events. I scarcely read issues in print and online. Every morning I wake up, I'm in a whole new world inside my head. My family is constantly rambling about nation wide issues, but I never verbally apply any input in the matter. Well, I hardly have anything to say, really. I pay more attention to my private thoughts and fantasies than what goes on out there. It does put me to shame every single time. To think I'd wisen up a bit and actively think about other people's problems for a change. I never realized how narcissistic MDD can make you, especially when you need things and want to get away from your unflattering realities.

Anyway, I just started reading Global News today. I learned about immigrant children being separated from their parents at the U.S. border, being sent to 'migrant camps' where they're put into cages, feeling terrified, hungry and wanting their families. My mom watched CNN all day long, hating Trump's apathy and hating an in-compassionate spokeswoman who was sounding snide towards the crisis. The point is, I felt very good that I volunteered my awareness of something that normally goes over my head, as my mind is submerged into day dreams.
