For most of my life I have protected people from my depression I did everything I could to hide my struggle. but it doubled my burden crushing the load until I could take no more and so one morning I woke up and summoned my courage and reached out for help. Stay safe |
I got a warning on TikTok that I violated community guidelines. This is what I posted:

A black hole drifts through my thoughts,
randomly eclipsing memories
leaving behind an empty space
that’s so deep and dark
I can’t find the words.
It’s troubling
to draw a complete blankwhen you know you should know
It’s troublingto think
that it’s only getting worse.
You are important to me.
Even though we've never met,
I recognise your struggle,
and share in your pain and perseverance.
To have come this far,
to have said no,
time and time again,
even when every thought screamed for relief,
you chose life.
You are remarkable.
You are important to me.
I think of you every day.and miss you all the more.
I need a friend;
someone to listen,
someone to share my life.
I need you
I'm alone.
You can't give up now.
You've made it so far.
Take it slow if you need to
but don't stop
Take a breath if you want to
but don't fade.
Remember,
each step crushes the Critic.
each step is your own reward.
Look head and understand
you are important.
Depression is not a choice
It's not an excuse
It's not selfish.
It's living with a disease
that can kill you.
