Sinking
I think my experiment in gratitude might be failing. I will not relapse. I refuse. I know all too well where that takes me. And it is not a better place no matter how far down I think I'm feeling now. But being grateful for my children or anything else isn't keeping the depression at bay. Maybe I need to get back on meds even though I don't think they much helped for the many years I was on them. I want to cry all the time. I want to curl up in a corner in my closet with a big blanket to pull over me and be left alone. I want the world to fade away. I don't want to talk about it. No one can make it better. No one understands. And I certainly am no good at explaining it. I sit and blankly stare at nothing and I just want to be left alone. I'm still pushing through and doing all my daily chores and taking care of all my obligations but the blackness is getting blacker daily; the air harder to breathe by the minute; the loneliness more unbearable by the second. I'm not giving up on gratitude, but I am realizing it's going to take alot more to keep me afloat. God, if you're listening, I think you might be the only one that can help me right now. I need your help. I don't know what kind of help to ask for but I think if anything is going to help it will be some sort of divine intervention. Please help me. I'm sinking.
