Dear Depression, You need to leave me alone already…
“Dear Depression, You need to leave me alone already. Everyday your screaming at me telling me how terrible I am. You make me replay every mistake i've ever made. You humiliate me on a daily basis. You've made it impossible to be happy or have any connections with my friends and my family. I am sick of you controlling me. The sooner you leave, the better off I will be. Dont come back either. I never want you to be apart of my life again. I hate myself for letting you inside my head. Sincerely, Me.”
