The Darkness

The Darkness

Today I am in the black pit

Where it seems that all

Life has to offer

Is pain.

I’ve been here before

I’ve left before

And I know I may

Return again.

I don’t need to be comforted

I need to feel this

Not suppress it

Let it pass.

I need to work through this

Not bury it

Or it will re-surface

Sevenfold.

Today I am in the black pit

Where it seems that all

Life has to offer

Is pain.

Just going through a bad patch. Week started off with pre-menstral anxiety that got to point where I didn't feel I could bear it. Came home on Monday and it was just so good to be in the dark and quiet that I didn't turn the lights on in the house either before or after I went for a run in the moonlight ... and went to bed quite early. Period started yesterday so that died down but today wasn't a good day. Went to see a friend who is going down hill and today he was in pain and didn't want me around ... and I didn't see the boyfriend because he had chest pains this morning.

thinking of you gambit, must have been difficult not be able to help your friend, hope this time next week monday will feel like a distant memory.

A run in the moonlight sounds special though

I can totally relate to this as I have suffered anxiety (GAD) and Depression for 4 years now, but I am currently attending weekly CBT Sessions with a Therapist which is helping a great deal.

I'm sorry life is hard for you right now. Lovely cat!

Picture was taken a few months ago so she is a bit bigger now - and more cat like but still cute. One of her brothers lives with me but her other brother and her sister live a couple of doors down - sister was in running around when I got home - often comes round for a bite (cat biscuits always down) and a play - though haven't seen her for a while - probably because she's just been spayed ... Sephie was done a little while after the picture was taken ...
