Depression! Who do you think you are?

Senior4merEverything profile image

I have days that don't start, they are dragged from the day(s) before. Imagine that? A day that seems to never end, one that drags and lingers, and forces me to relive the pain and the depression of the one before, compounded by that which is happening now.

i don't like being depressed, I don't like knowing that it will happen to me again.

So, I ask depression: Who in the hell do think you are, to come into my life and disrupt it this way?

I'd like to drag depression across the broken glass and debris of the shattered pieces of my emotions and my mind that it's left behind in its wake!

I just wanted to rant and allow anyone else who might feel this way, to know that they are not alone.

Peace to all of you.

4mer, a good analogy of the pain your depression has caused and your

feeling in ridding yourself of it. Thank you for letting these emotions out :) xx

4merBassistMedic, thank you so much for that rant - what a great idea to yell at depression! Your description, "I'd like to drag depression across the broken glass and debris of the shattered pieces of my emotions and my mind that it's left behind in its wake!" was so vivid and real and really touched me - it helped me describe my own depression and despair, and I tried ranting like you and it felt so good to name the pain and problems this depression has caused, and let out my anger at the unfairness and irrationality of it all - that doesn't get talked about very much. You have given me a new and powerful tool for coping and beautiful wording to inspire me, I am very grateful. 🧡

Sincerely,
