It's back.

It’s back. The enemy I’ve tried so hard to defeat. The battle I’ve been fighting since I was thirteen.

It exhausting isn't it. I have been fighting at different intensities for over a decade.

I'm sorry to hear that. Going on 15 years myself of dealing with anxiety, depression, and OCD. Sometimes I feel pretty decent and happy, finally at peace with myself. Other times it is all doom and gloom, like I'm in a deep, dark pit, constantly falling with no end in sight. And it always hurts more when I have a good spell and then go spiraling downwards because I question what I did wrong to lose my happiness and I feel so much shame and guilt. What I tell myself is that the anxiety and depression is temporary and that I have attained happiness before so I am capable of doing it again. Sure I know the happiness will most but likely be temporary too, but even the smallest amount of hope helps to make it through one more day. That's all we can do, just take it one day, or one minute even, at a time. I'm hear to always listen so don't hesitate to reach out.
