I Struggling With Depression

There once was a girl
With a hole growing inside her chest.
And every day it kept growing.
It wouldn't close no matter what she threw in it.
Love, hope, pain, anger, kindness.
Nothing was able to seal the vastness spreading through her.
So she got tired and soon she felt nothing.
She knew that the emptiness would claim her one day.
So she accepted her fate
And lives day by day with a hole growing in her chest.

I know that feeling extremely well. I'm sorry.

Tried filling the void with video games - didn't work.

Money and consumerism - Didn't work after a while.

Different supplements - Didn't work for long.

Alcohol - didn't work long term.

Love - Helped a lot until it fell apart and made things worse.

Therapy - Expensive as fuck.

I hope you find something that works for you.

Fuck that damned void.

I was a bit hesitant to 💓 that because I also struggle with that, however the prose was so beautiful that it simply had to be done!
