Dealing with Depression

Depression

We stand here so cold, so old
With our hearts wrapped in ice
Like Arthur's Knights so bold
We need a witchly poultice
For wounds that never heal

We shall fight this beast that hides inside
For it shall never be our bride
In our hearts we will make a stand
And leave this molestation on shifting-sand

Within this window is a candle lighted
Through a path unlighted with ghostly apparritions
Past splintered windows and doorways mended
A life reclaimed; A journey ended


Poem by M.McGee

I have, for quite a while now, suffered from depression, it's an illness I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy. If you can imagine fighting a war in your head, the problem is, that you are fighting yourself. I remember when I was a young child I didn't have a care in the world, nothing could have prepared me for what was going to come. Depression has taken me to the brink and back again. Despite having recieved treatment for years now there are still some days I simply wish I wasn't here, but on a more positive note I'm beginning to learn to LIVE again, and if you had known where I was just 12 months ago, this would not have seemed like a possibility.
