I write about my life, depression and my fight to get motivated and healthy on several levels.I hope to grow through my writing and maybe help my readers find their own voice too. I also write about current events and how they affect my view of the world and the people in it.
I am feeling very lonely, scared, unsure of my future and not too sure there will be a future. Whenever I try to "see" past the next few months its all black....I have never felt like that before. No matter how depressed I've been I have had the ability to see hope and a plan for the coming years. I want to get out of my house and my head and go to work but I don't know how to leave the house. I have applied for job after job on line but can't find a way to walk into a place and do the same thing I do on line...Filling out an application...How hard can it be? Then even the possibility of one of those jobs calling me in for a meeting...OMG, it makes my stomach hurt..Just thinking about an interview and then, if I get a job, the training, makes my heart start banging in my chest and my skin start to sweat. I can't breathe... I can't breathe.... I can't figure out anymore how to live. It doesn't even make me sad anymore. It just makes me feel aw...
~I think we all have heard that research has proved that babies feel loved more when a parent gently rubs their back,stomach or massages their arms and legs.To a baby who is put into a NICU (unit for babies born prematurely with breathing and/or other problems), interaction with their parent(s) is vital to their self-esteem, feelings of security and all future intimate relationships. A baby that is not loved, touched,hugged and kissed is most likely to suffer problems interacting through their lives.That is why doctors and nurses especially encourage parents to hug, snuggle or gently rub their babies skin.The human touch for a baby is as important as food; it's nourishment to a growing soul to be touched and to be loved. So why would it be any different to that soul as we become even older? Touch is communication without words. If someone wants to show a friend that they care often the first thing most people want to do is hug them. When people on line want to reach out to another ...
I have nothing to offer this paper. Like the pale face of the moon it gleams & invites new adventures yet I am at a loss for words. I am at a loss for emotions too. There is a block, a shadow over this poet. It feels as big as a skyscraper but it's as small as the tip of this pen ....which lays here as dry as my eyes. Every blank space haunts me.... I want to write on the walls, in the blue stretch of the sky and on the floors but the words won't come. It's as if they are stuck somewhere between my brain and my hand.. One little pill...A prescription for my depression. It's all that stands between me and releasing all of these emotions~ From feeling this mess inside of me, and spreading it onto the paper.... One little capsule filled with a medicine that dulls my sadness but also my elation, my fear, my hope and my voice. One little pill that saves my life daily but kills my spirit.
