what does (s)he see in me?
my heart feels like lead
all the color in my life is gone,
but all the cones in my eyes are intact.
I never should have woken up
am I that dispensable?
I can't remember what it felt like
before the darkness came.
That just invalidated all my efforts
I’ll only be a burden
They’re just being polite
Why should I even bother?
I wonder if my family sees
the hurt in my eyes
and elects to ignore it

Recognize thoughts like these in your own head. Acknowledge them for what they are: hindrances to your mental health.
