Where did I go?

I was listed on Google the day before yesterday, but now I can't be found. I was so happy that mental illness literature "came up" on this search engine. If anyone is out there reading this, do you know the finicky nature of Google? Why are you there one day and not there the other?

This predicament is actually the perfect metaphor for mental illness. Sometimes, you're "there," and sometimes, you're "not there." Where does the self go? What does it take to find the self? The old self? Drugs? Conversation? Love? Fresh air? Time?

Maybe I'll be "there," on Google, tomorrow...
