I am surrounded by a darkness. I am not falling but I am stuck in it. My head is floating somewhere invisible, and my legs are holding on to something bright. I don’t even remember what it was because my head is filled with all your darkness. I only know my sister stands there in the light unable to get me because you pushed me too far already. I wonder when all this had happened. When did you take my hand and bring me here? Where even am I right now if not dead? - a letter to my depression

about my first teenage year
I am surrounded by a darkness. I am not falling but I am stuck in it. My head is floating somewhere invisible, and my legs are holding on to something bright. I don’t even remember what it was because my head is filled with all your darkness. I only know my sister stands there in the light unable to get me because you pushed me too far already.
