I Love Technology, But Does Technology Love Me?

May 10, 2023 by Depression Is Not My Boss Leave a Comment

I love technology, but does technology love me?

Photo by Markus Spiske on Unsplash I am listening in my truck to an Audible book about the landing of a man on the moon in 1969. The story includes mention of historical events including the introduction of the personal computer. I would like to think that I am somewhat of a tech geek. I purchased my first PC in 1986. It had a green screen monitor. To use it, you had to … [Read more...] about I Love Technology, But Does Technology Love Me?

It’s True, I’ve Seen People I Will Never See Again

April 29, 2023 by Depression Is Not My Boss Leave a Comment

I have met people that I will never see again

Photo by Mario Purisic on Unsplash It’s inevitable. In a crowded airport and on a full flight, I see plenty of people. And the chances of me ever seeing them again are infinitely small. They pass by with their suitcases in tow. Sometimes there are children, and sometimes dogs. So many of them are on their cell phones. They are texting or watching YouTube cat videos or … [Read more...] about It’s True, I’ve Seen People I Will Never See Again

I Learned Something About Working with Others Today

March 8, 2023 by Depression Is Not My Boss Leave a Comment

I learned that I try to control people and it is not depression that is doing this

Photo by Sivani Bandaru on Unsplash It appears that I am very bad at it. I would like to think that I have a knack for working with others and inspiring them to do their absolute best. And often this is true. Most of the managers, supervisors, and employees that report to me seem to get my ideas and execute them. Perhaps it’s because I treat them the way I would want to … [Read more...] about I Learned Something About Working with Others Today

Why Am I Obsessed with Always Being Early?

October 1, 2022 by Depression Is Not My Boss Leave a Comment

Why amI obsessed with getting places on time

I should have known better than to rush the morning so I could leave on time. After all, this trip is a mini vacation. But sleeping in until almost 7 AM, I felt like I had a lot to do to leave the house by 10 AM. The trip to the Poconos from our part of Virginia was a 6-hour drive. I still had to push a load of laundry through the dryer, pack my suitcase, grab my computer, … [Read more...] about Why Am I Obsessed with Always Being Early?

T’was The Night Before Christmas and Covid Appeared

December 24, 2021 by Depression Is Not My Boss Leave a Comment

Twas the night before Christmas and Covid apperaed, turning a close family gathering into a long distance Zoom call

It wasn’t me or a family member who tested positive for Covid-19. But the aftermath had the same result. Our Christmas gathering will be smaller. My son and his wife had planned to come down for a few days, beginning Christmas afternoon. We had planned an evening of Christmas dinner and presents around the tree. I even checked the bromine in the hot tub to make sure it was … [Read more...] about T’was The Night Before Christmas and Covid Appeared

I write My Concealed Depression to create Mental Health AwarenessHello, I am Joel. I have Major Depressive Disorder. As I meet others with mental illness, they often tell me they feel alone.

With 40+ years of living with concealed depression, I write my blog to let others know you are not alone. Others are going through the same things.

And I write to share what I am learning so you and I can lead a balanced life.
