Սեպտեմբերի 26-ին
Tumblr media
Սեպտեմբերի 26-ը կյանքիս ամենաերջանիկ օրերից էր, չնայած այդ պահին չէի զգում դա, երբ առավոտյան 11-ի շաբաթօրյա փոշեկուլն էի անում սենյակումս:
Դա չէր զգում նաև հարևանս, ով դժգոհ դեմքով փորձեց բողոքել կողքի հարևանից՝ լիֆտի փողը չտալու համար:
Չէր զգում կորոնավիրուսով ու բարձր ջերմությամբ պառկած իմ գործընկերը, ում միակ երազանքը օֆիս հետ գալն էր:
Գուցե, զգում էր միայն շունիկս, բայց, ես չէի…

Անվերնագիր
Tumblr media
Ես չգիտեմ այլ ձև ապրել, քան ստեղծելու, արարելու համար:
Ես չգիտեմ այլ ձև սիրել, քան հուր դառնալու ու կրակ տալու համար:
Ես չգիտեմ այլ ձև գործել, քան բարու, արդարի, բարձրի համար:
Ես չգիտեմ այլ ձև պարտվել, քան նորից ու նորից հաղթելու համար:
  Ես չգիտեմ այլ կերպ քայլել, քան նոր ափերի հասնելու համար,
Այդ ափերին երազելու, ապրելու, պարելու համար:
Ես չգիտեմ այլ կերպ գերել, քան գերվելու ու գերի մնալու…

A Parting Sketch: Part 2
A Parting Sketch: Part 2
Tumblr media
When we choose to part – (or, when in fact YOU make me leave you) – there’ll be a lot of howling. Beating pillows. In front of you. Without any fear of being regarded as a manipulative bitch. Cause I am not and haven’t been one, you know it well enough. I just can’t play a tough girl, I am tired. I want to be authentic. It’s scary, isn’t it? But I am not afraid of being vulnerable. Unlike you.
Wh…

Միայն չուշանաս
Tumblr media
Գնա՛, սիրելիս, պտտվի՛ր մի քիչ,
Թակի՛ր այլ դռներ, գերի՛ր այլ սրտեր,
Հետ կգաս ինձ մոտ, իմ սիրուն կարոտ,
Բայց միայն՝ չուշանաս:
  Թողնում եմ, գնա՜, սահի՛ր դու ազատ,
Հասի՛ր հեռուներ, փնտրի՛ր նոր սերեր,
Հետ կգաս ինձ մոտ՝ համբույրիս կարոտ,
Խնդրում եմ, միայն չուշանաս:
  Եվ վերջին անգամ կգնաս անհետ,
Կորչելով անտակ մթի անկյունում,
Մի օր՝ կարոտած «բարև» կգրես
Հեռավոր երկրից, մենավոր երկրից,
  Բայց, ավաղ,…

Գալի՞ս ես
Tumblr media
Ատում եմ քեզնից հեռանալու պահը: Ամեն ինչ անում եմ՝ այն ��եզինի պես ձգելու, լոճելու, երկարացնելու համար: Բայց մենք գիտենք, որ այդ պահի համար ենք հանդիպում: Չլիներ այդ պահը՝ չէր լինի իրար տեսնելու անհագ զգացումն ու տենչանքը:
Միևնույն է՝ ատում եմ այդ պահը… Մտովի հորինում եմ ինչ ասես՝ ես լավ եմ այդ հարցում, այդ պահը հետաձգելու համար: Չեղարկե՞լ այդ պահը: Ոչ, չեմ կարող: Ավելի ճիշտ, չեմ ուզում: Իսկ ավելի…

A Parting Sketch
Tumblr media
When we choose to part, I will keep silent. I will squeeze my screams in my chest and leave them alone there. Until a sad tune touches my heart and pours them all out – in my pillow. When we have to part, I will keep seeing my friends, the same day – the same Friday. I will keep smiling and singing and posting silly images on Instagram. I will smile to the waiter, dance like a crazy – and come…

Tales of Depression and Victory: tough relapse
Tales of Depression and Victory: tough relapse
Tumblr media
It seems to have come out of nowhere. Without any prior notice. Or, wait – the daily accumulated tension and multitasking at work – this is where it all began. The first stage is the attempt to ignore and take easy the signs of the looming storm. You just persuade yourself it’s the fatigue, bad day at work (although almost every day can be dubbed as such), PMS or even the vitamin deficiency. But…

Tales of depression and victory: episode 4 - fearless worrier
Tales of depression and victory: episode 4 – fearless worrier
Tumblr media
When the climax of panic is gone – and, believe me, it will happen sooner or later, no matter how desperate you feel now – you will be overcome with a liberating wave of fearlessness. Not that you won’t worry at all. No. You will still worry a lot – for trifles or major issues – but you will experience the feeling of invincibility, the inner strength that you never experienced before. It will be…

Tales of depression and victory: the repeated scenarios
Tales of depression and victory: the repeated scenarios
Tumblr media
I used to be a master of drafting and acting on repeated scenarios. Amorous ones. With clear understanding of their being not-happily-ended yet untamed desire to go for yet another experience, fall into another gut of emotional turmoil. With outright stubbornness and outrageous frivolousness towards the results. With a speed of the fastest sprinter did I find myself in subsequent chains of…

Tales of depression and victory: Sunday kind of blues
Tales of depression and victory: Sunday kind of blues
Tumblr media
Life is unfair, especially towards Mondays :) Why are they dubbed ‘blue’, ‘tough’ and even ‘horrific’? It’s Sunday that deserves the epithets. Sunday is a rare bitch. Even if you’re a free-spirited self-employed person with already fading memories of the cubicle life. But still, you’ve got the scratchy feeling in the throat once the Medusa of Sunday shoots a devastating look at you. Indigo blue…

Tales of depression and victory: episode 1
Tales of depression and victory: episode 1
Tumblr media
Today I can’t keep silent. I’m sitting in our candlelit sitting room. The lights are off, so no internet and full of time to at last set to my narrative. I am going to write about depression. Not the state of being depressed, but the real, devastating, mind and heart-draining depression. Spiced up with anxiety and panic attacks. It’s time for the world to acknowledge the plague of the 21st…

Job-hunt: our top 3 absurd interview situations
Job-hunt: our top 3 absurd interview situations
Tumblr media
  Sometimes we deal with abusive interviewers -How was the interview?   -Oh, as usual. They started asking me absurd questions and I backfired with a tirade of sarcastic answers. This was one of the typical dialogues between my friend and Ruzanna over the past few months when she was seeking a job after quitting her seemingly posh yet juice-draining position as a store manager. As nо less…

Toxicity detected, or why are some people always unhappy?
Toxicity detected, or why are some people always unhappy?
Tumblr media
  Do you know any “always unhappy” person? In one of my previous posts, we together unveiled how to identify and shield ourselves against emotional vampires. Let’s face it we’re all sometimes sieged by them, moreover, at times, we are the Draculas! (Not the funny one from my favorite Hotel Transylvania, but the real one- emotionally depleting and horrible).   Now let’s talk about a particular…

Process vs. results. What's more important?
Process vs. results. What’s more important?
Tumblr media
Results vs goals, what’s more important? What’s more fulfilling: the road you carve toward your goals or the ultimate result? Admit it: there is something devastating in having the sacred dream of life-changing goal realized. But, the unhappiest time is when you reach the goal you thought would make you happy but eventually you end up feeling bitter emptiness. “What’s next”?- you wonder. “Is this…

Pave your wave to your goals: the power of asking
Pave your wave to your goals: the power of asking
Tumblr media
Knock and the door will be opened. Like in the popular cartoons, I right now felt an invisible lamp being lit over my head;  the so-called “a-ha” moment. As usual, it happened when I was injecting my morning dose of inspiration on BBC.com Capital into my brains. “The Three Secrets of Getting What You Want”- the clickbait headline already foreboded a mix of ultimate reading pleasure and a promise…

Can shopping beat the blues? Shopping vs alternative  "therapies''
Can shopping beat the blues? Shopping vs alternative  “therapies”
Tumblr media
At one point, things start owning us What do you do while distressed, frustrated, anxious or furious? I bet 2 out of 3 (women) will answer- go shopping! It holds true to me, too. Quick statistics. Having an apartment repaired was a well-grounded reason  for me to “inventory” my belongings (apart from all the side effects of any repairs- chronic headache, more frequent family conflicts and lack of…

"Cheer up" and 5 more taboos not to comfort your depressed friend with
“Cheer up” and 5 more taboos not to comfort your depressed friend with
Tumblr media
“Cheer up” is no effective Recently, I’ve come across a very thought-provoking article written by one of my favorite columnists, Oliver Burkeman, for The Guardian. With his challenging irony and sarcasm, the author argues the pointlessness of the “comforting” commands such as “cheer up”, “calm down” that you and I often use to help a depressed friend. “Is there anything more annoying than being…
