How I'm Feeling

[Dragon3695]

I'm tired of all the hurt and pain

I'm tired of feeling like nothing remains

I'm tired of the constant trying

I'm tired of feeling like my soul is dying

I gave my heart and I have my soul

I gave it all for you to hold

I gave my everything for you my dear

I gave it all and you ran in fear

I will end with being unknown

I will end up truly alone

I will always feel really annoyed

I will end up truly devoid

This poem speaks true to so many. Depression is a constant battle of feeling okay and then completely not okay. Sometimes we get tired of fighting the battle and want to give up because it can be so exhausting. Give yourself some grace. Take a deep breath and do something that you enjoy, even if it doesn't feel as enjoyable at the moment. One day at a time.

Very true. It is good to have a good support system.

Very well written. I really feel like this is the reality in many ways. Depression is clueless. A flood of numerous emotions hitting so badly. Making us lose all the precious things we are connected to. I can understand what you're going through but that's how depression is. Some mornings are amazing and the nights are still the same. Sometimes I feel like it's over and sometimes I feel like it's never going to over. That's how it is. Life is going with the flow and flaws. There is an online therapist I found and I talk to him whenever I feel like my depression is crossing the paths. Also he shared with me this article to read mangoclinic.com/anxiety-man... and I found it a little helpful, I always try to divert and distract my mind but it always keeps triggering depression. I hope this phase end soon. I hope we all get a peaceful bright life. =) God's help is near.
