"The question of how can a man not care about living, in a world where those children you clearly adore are living."

Pennsylvania Senator @JohnFetterman talks about his "downward spiral" that led to a diagnosis of major depression, how his health scare affected his family, and his reasons for feeling hopeful for the future.https://t.co/LOQNIoxrVa pic.twitter.com/YJarDmFbuL

From the linked article:

"A neuropsychiatrist, [Dr. David] Williamson has been treating Fetterman. "He had markedly reduced motivation and drive," Williamson said. "The RPM in the brain, how fast you think and how clearly you think, is very substantially degraded when patients get depressed."

One can't help suspecting that the "very substantially degraded" thinking had to do with the stroke.
