"(...)It was like my default state. It was like I was meant to kill myself. Everything else was an effort. Suicidal feelings felt like coming home. They almost brought me closer to myself, they felt stronger than other feelings, they were intimate and private, they almost felt like when I used to spend all that time by myself when I was younger.(...)"

"I was a fast touch typer, so I knew I'd be good enough. I might not get the job if there were people much faster than me, but I could live with it, because it would be more of a criticism of my fingers than of me as a person. That's the sort of fragile way I was at the time."
