"The Lost Years & Last Days of David Foster Wallace"


Rolling Stone article about the author

I've never read David Foster Wallace.

But gods, I can sympathize with the depression episodes.

Mine never required medication. I suppose that is something. There were days when I would wake up and spend an hour coming up with a reason not to kill myself that day. Mostly because it was too much trouble.

I still have bad times, but they aren't suicidal bad anymore.

Wallace's life was a sad story and too short.

I really wish I could say more.

Hat tip Daring Fireball.
