I Fight Depression and Loneliness Everyday

Key words - 'FIGHT' and 'EVERYDAY'

Depression - The world you see is not what we see. We see black. We see emptiness. The darkness is real. The fear is real. Our tears are real and our tears is not because we want attention because we know how to hide our broken. Society has a flaw. We know how to wear two faces known as are our masks. Because we hate pity. We also know that society is ruled by fear. Yet, humanity is our weakness. To feel pain, we must learn to understand and accept that sometimes, it is OK to sometimes not be ok.
There's a difference to how this is perceived... one, depression is NOT an illness and EVERYONE has been through some sort of 'situation depression' as It is NOT publicly announced, flaunting it for attention, gain, blame or revenge. It is caused by a deep pain that was not embraced as acceptable and so it is buried ... until the pain resurfaces and we are chained by the ghosts of our past.

We all have three shades as our present is faded and the past is before us.
I'll tell you mine -
- Suppression: breaking down in tears once the emotions surfaces.
- Emotionless: I go blank when I get pressured with 'Talking through it'
- Rage / The Dark: I become the shadows of the ones who stole ny childhood. It is also fear... fear of inflicting self hatred into my heart and therefore closed my heart to Love.

Lonliness - In our minds, either coupled, single, married or just recently had a bad relationship...it NEEDS the alone time in order to heal. Otherwise, why make a 'distraction' the remedy? So that another can pay for our insecurities? No... Loniless is not about needing another person, it's about finding yourself again. It also about you! Don't settle for less, always know that you can, you will, your worth it.

Depression - They are not what they say you are. They are what they say you are.
Lonliness - Is if you need someone to make you less lonely... then your only lying to yourself. Because you do not love yourself enough to believe that you can do it alone.

The two words - DEPRESSION & LONILINESS: Both words have conflicting meanings.

You can. You will. Watch yourself do what they never beleived you could.

Because your still here, because you fight!
And you do it again ...the very next day.
Like you have been everyday before that.

You are not alone and finding those in the same boat helps us pull each other through each day

You forgot one word......

"Future"....which you have......make the best of it. ;-/
There's the past and the present.
I choose to live in the 'now' :)
There's no promises of Tomorrow, therefore each day is precious and Life is what happens when we are not consumed by the ghosts of our past or with the thoughts of tomorrow.

Regardless, I do agree with you. However, the future is today and I will certainly make the most of every moment :) xx
