How did it happen? It’s hard to say. I suppose there was a certain trigger but it was nothing obvious. I didn’t suddenly wake up one day and find myself unable to function. There was no illness, no hospital white linen, no scars, just a loud noted absence. There was no accident or mishap, no signs of external injury, no black eyes. I sometimes – often – think that it would have been considerably easier if there had been something physical tangible or some event something I could mark in my diary or on the calendar, a date I could pinpoint and note as an anniversary. Yes truly I would really rather have suffered something, some trauma, some shock, something – anything – that I could spend my time trying to erase from my memory, than this… this nothing this lack the consequence of which I find myself devoting hours and hours – for wont of anything better to do – to the trawling of my recollections in a futile attempt to locate the source, the root, the single defining occurrence which marked the start of it all. The beginning of the end.
