    How Desire Acts Like Salvation to my Depression

    Depression can take as many different forms as there are people experiencing it. When mine arrives, it shows up almost exactly the same every time. It begins as a numbing. Feeling disappears, followed by a loss of my desire. That final loss—the flatlining of my wanting—ushers in terror and I know the episode to be especially dire.  Travel back in time with me to an essay I wrote while emerging from a depressive episode a few years ago in which I explore the shape of my depression and the essential role my wanting plays in it all. I'll end the reading with a poem that approaches that holy wanting in a different, yet parallel direction.  For more from Angelina Danae and From the Hand, follow below.  Website: fromthehand.co Substack: fromthehand.substack.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/angelinadanae_/

The essay itself is a reflection on returning to her Amish origin decades after her family was excommunicated from the church and lost every tie to their heritage. Tune in to hear the essay as well as Angelina's reflection on what inspired the essay three years ago and how it felt to read it aloud.
