hi.
hi.
how are you?
good, you?
are we really all this
******* good?

the world, i know it is truly vibrant, but
theres been this film that seems to obstruct my absorption of it.
matte. faded.
and supposedly administered for my own benefit.
that film,
you peel it off.
and i thank you
a little backstory: i was overprescribed large amounts of different antidepressants and benzodiazepines from fourteen to seventeen years old and have been living with serotonin syndromeΒ ever since, which is basically a chemical imbalance that will forever keep me from achieving the same genuine happiness that anyone without this disorder can.

and what i wrote here reflects how, in a single person's presence, all of that can go away.
