Powerful story! I actually liked it for all of its darkness - it's unique and different and, as you've laid it out here, totally believable. It really shows the impact of depression, how a person can be thrown into despair and then spiral out of control. Kudos to you for handling this material in a thoughtful way.
Thanks, Susan! I'm glad you liked it. And I'm glad it rang as believable and true. One of the reasons why I had my husband take a look at it before I posted was because he suffers from depression. (That and he seemed intrigued when I told him I was writing a story in which Superman tries to take his own life.)
Thanks for the feedback!
