From Little Episodes’ Founder - Lucie Barât , 2009

I would consider myself to have been lost. Perhaps I provoked myself with persistent existential angst, or perhaps I just struggled with life and finding my place in the world.

I have spent time on psychologists’ couches and I have resided in various institutions, and in the end, I believe I became 'found'. On my journey, I read empathetic accounts of other people’s experiences. It helped to lift the ‘bell jar’ a little when I felt imprisoned in the battleground of my mind and when I felt most alone on the edges of society.

I wanted to create something that might provide light and understanding to other sufferers of depression, addiction, mental illness, or people just struggling... hopefully the 'expression of depression' volumes go some way to doing this. I also wanted to provide a platform for talented artists who have never had a ‘break’, as it’s well known that most artistic industries can be harsh on even the most happy of personalities. Plenty of talented people fall by the wayside simply because they don’t have the fight or the thick skin to keep playing the artistic lottery for a chance at success. Both Little Episodes Publishing and Little Episodes Productions feature work from successful as well as unknown talent.

Most of all, I wanted to help de-stigmatise depression and promote compassion and understanding rather than fear and embarrassment. I also wanted to dispel the notion that depression is in any way cool. I wanted to express the belief that romantic dead poets and the image of sultry, tragic heroines are just a dangerous mirage. If you flirt with a glamorised dark side, you could fall through, and contrary to popular belief; you will not discover a font of creative inspiration, but quite the opposite; a dull, flat hell land.
