i thought i was getting better. i have had some trouble with si but whatever, i was coping. i wasn't really depressed. but i can feel myself falling back into it. all the stress at school and all the crap i get from my parents is just crushing me. i don't want to go back into this again, is there anything i can do to stop this?

he who does not feel me is not real to me
Therefore he doesn't exist
So poof...vamoose you sob

What's wrong with the world, mama
People livin' like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate,

can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars? i can really use a wish right now.

i'm not afraid to take a stand
Everybody come take my hand
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Just let you know that, you're not alone
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road

I'mma be what I set out to be, without a doubt undoubtedly
And all those who look down on me I'm tearing down your balcony

I like your poem. I also write poetry and I find that if I feel myself sliding into darkness that if I sit down and write, sometimes the darkness will fade...even if it's just for a little while. Are you on meds? Do you go to therapy or have outside support groups? I'm originally from NY and I know they have tons and tons of support groups for some of everything. It might help to be able to talk to someone who understands. I hope u feel better soon and good luck.

Great writing! btw, it sounds like you need more of an anti-anxiety/depression mix- that's what I have (citalopram) It also treats OCD and PTSD, just as a note anone else reading. I hope you feel better.

For stress management, I reccomend you do yoga
