My life has been turned upside down!
It's like I never had depression to begin with.
Please, if you are struggling with depression, anxiety and thoughts of suicide and feel like there is no way out...seek help...it's totally worth it.
I used to be against medication but I had a chemical issue in my brain and I was going to end my life. I told myself this was my last resort and if it didn't work I was going to die.
I am so glad I seeked help.
There is hope.

It's easy to be great when life is great.
It's when life becomes hard and challenging
that you'll truly get to meet yourself.
I've met myself many, many times.

All these different parts of myself
make up all of me.
When I feel bad more than good,
I have to ask myself:
Am I bad?

Depression,
you are the only one
who's always been there for me.
I have to let you go
in order to move forward.

I have to let you go.
I have to learn how to accept
everything that has happened from me
and to me.
That is hard.

I used to believe true pain
was what others did to me.
No.
True pain is living what you've done to others,
the ones you love,
the ones you don't want to live without.
That feeling lingers a lot longer than anything else bad.

I have to learn to forgive.
I have to accept it.
My fate depends on it.
I love you.
I also love myself.

how i lived before
not knowing you
baffles me.
because you are the world
i never knew
i dreamed of.
you are the love
i never thought i'd feel.
you are the most
beautiful person
i never thought i'd meet.
i am the luckiest girl alive.

when the ice melted,
the coldness from her soul left.
the ground was fertile
and there was a new beginning.
she could see the life inside her
sprouting and that's when she realized...
she was always there
underneath it all.
just waiting to bloom.
I'm ready to end my battle with depression.  I know it may not be over but I'm ready to accept my life for what it is and seek for a more positive future.

So...my depression and anxiety got so bad I was having really bad suicidal thoughts. I started hurting everyone I loved around me...I have finally seeked professional help...and that took a lot of strength to do because my childhood consisted of taking medications that never fitted my illness and made things worse. It's only been 3 days on Zoloft...but I think I actually feel a difference. I am also taking vitamin B12. I'm going to set myself up with counseling soon as well. I will update my progress within a week or 2. Love you all. ~~
Will write more soon.
