What am I supposed to do--
With these irrational thoughts?
Caused by a mere chemical imbalance?

It's not like I can help it
It's not like I can change
Its not like I can stop being afraid of everything
Just because you said I can

It takes work
Getting rid of these irrational thoughts
Like opening up to some random person
In a fake "comfy" room
With pillows and couches and lamps
To mask the fluorescent lights

And doing it over and over

Or addictive medication
That could tear your life apart
After only making it slightly better

So what do I do with these irrational thoughts?
Do I begin treatment that may ultimately make my life worse?
Or do I slowly come to terms with them?
Until they swallow me whole
Anxiety *****
