This is just poem I wrote. It is about my depression. Although right now I seem to be doing pretty well. If you would like let me know what you think.

A Dark Tunnel

It a long dark tunnel
I travel every year
Maybe even twice

This hopeless journey
It changes everytime
But never for the better

Every time this tunnel I travel
It seems longer and shorter
In so many ways

The despair though seems heavier
Weighing me down more
Relief nowhere to be seen

There is a light at the end
Looks like it's far away
But onward I go

A stumble here, a stumble there
I call for help*
The people come

There's simple things I must do
Helps keep the darkness at bay
Ask for help

There is hope
Keep your head up
And keep movin through
Thanks for this!

To me it seems that you are so tired of it but have a ready plan to deal with your depression. You've been through it repeatedly but retain the focus to know you'll get out of it. My first thought after reading it was if it comes on such a regular basis, can you block it or minimize the impact? I don't have a regular pattern but I know or sense what might trigger my depression.

Thank you for posting it for all to see. I think it's quite descriptive of what I go through as well.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
