I never should have read The Bell Jar

And here's why:

1. It scared me witless.
2. Whenever I feel a little depressed, I immediately start thinking about "the bell jar" (not the book, the principle) and that's scary.
3. It made me afraid to go to Smith because I thought I'd lose it like Sylvia Plath did.
4. It made me think about depression much more than I'm comfortable with.

Maybe I'm just tired, maybe it's the literature I've been reading, but I'm feeling rather morose. Let's hope dance helps.
