Here we go with the third installment of stuff discovered in cyberspace that will knock you right out of whatever self-indulgent funk in which you are currently wallowing.
INTERNET CURE FOR DEPRESSION NUMBER EIGHT:
FALLEN PRINCESSES : (NOT SO) FAIRY TALE ENDINGS
IMPORTANT NOTE: Sometimes we have to kick depression by confronting depression itself. The source of humor in these brutally LOL photographic tableaus is as bleak as it gets. This is, of course, how we meet our own pissy little moods head-on: by guffawing through the pain. It’s a delightful paradox, but therein lies the healing. And trust me, by the time you get to The Ariel one, you won’t care anyway.
Still, if you can’t wrap your cerebellum around the notion that killing off your own gloom by laughing at gloom itself is the way to happiness, then just go with that word…what’s the one that means taking pleasure in the misfortune of others?  Oh, that’s right, schadenfreude.
Here, then, from photographer Dina Goldstein, is a splendid assortment of beautifully-staged scenarios depicting some more believable outcomes to the happy, shiny reworkings of fables we’ve had shoved down our gullets by various entertainment conglomerates over the years.  Zoloft be gone!
