it will pass
we know
but
while it holds us there
crushed in the dark
while it sucks away
all our confidence
while it allows
life to overwhelm us
excuse us
if we don't smile
excuse us
if we moan and groan
and float about like
miserable rain clouds
we do know
how lucky we are
we do know
we are loved
we do know
we are not as worthless as we think
we
do
know
but we can't feel it
right now
Very true ... there is always light at the end of the tunnel, and it is ins't always someone with a torch. It is daylight
I think the writer has captured very well what a depressive state can feel like to them, although I used to feel so depressed years ago that I thought no one cared, I didn’t feel loved and I did feel worthless. Luckily I have spent years changing that mindset and now I am happy with myself, I have good friends and I know people care.
I was in that state ten years ago and again in the years since my split. However, in the last year that has changed dramatically, and I am a happy person now. When I start getting those depressed feelings, I fight them now, and I win
Alastair, that’s awesome and inspirational. You deserve to be happy and I am so glad you are. Thanks for your honesty. You know your blogger family will always care too.
