When It’s Endless
Do you see those clouds? They seem endless, don’t they? As if they simply go on forever and never ever end. they seem so beautiful, don’t they? Those clouds as beautiful as they are carry rain and thunder. An intense storm dropped shortly after this photo was taken. Just a few hours later and these clouds became dark scary and powerful.
That is my life right now.
I am in the storm, not the eye since that would be calm, but the thick of it. Swirling winds, pounding rain, and debilitating pressure.
I am drowning.
There doesn’t seem to be an actual end in sight. There isn’t anything I can do and I am just so tired of fighting.
You know , no one wants to talk about this stuff. Depression scares people. They don’t want to deal with it, they tell you to pray, they offer platitudes that do absolutely nothing. If a hallmark card fixed it , don’t you think I would have done that already?
Depression and talking about mental health makes people uncomfortable.
It’s time we stop treating mental illness as though its a big scary monster under the bed. It isn’t
It’s a big scary monster sitting beside people in your life right now
