What Emotional Tunnel Vision Feels Like

November 21, 2020/ Gordon Corsetti
What Emotional Tunnel Vision Feels Like

Emotional tunnel vision is not a willful attempt to shield oneself from the world. It is a prison within the mind that gradually separates a person from everything they once felt and held dear.

Gordon Corsetti Mental Agility Foundation

Life on the 7th Shelf is my way of sharing how a person can live well with depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation.

The 7th Shelf was written by Dante in The Inferno, as the Wood of the Suicides.

For me, living on the 7th shelf is challenging but I have found my means for winning the daily battle against the worst my mind can throw at me.
