The insistence on normality, the belief in an inner logic in the face of unmistakably abnormality, is endemic to depression. It is the everyman story of this book, one I have encountered time after time. The shape of each person’s normality, however, is unique: normality is perhaps as even more private idea than weirdness. . . . .~
‘Normal’ is a word that haunts depressives. It depression normal? I read of normal groups and depressive groups in studies; of medication that could “normalize” depression; of “normal” and “atypical” clusters of symptoms. One of the people I met during this research said to me< “At first when these symptoms began, I thought I was going crazy. It was a big relief to find out that it was just a clinical depression and that it was basically normal”. It was, of course, basically the normal way to go crazy; depression is a mental illness, and when you are in its throes, you’re crazy as a loon, a bit balmy, a few sandwiches short of a picnic, bats in the belfry.
