Dear Quote by She's_gone
“Dear depression, you need to leave me alone already. everyday you're screaming at me and telling me how terrible I am. you make me replay every mistake i've ever made. and you humiliate me on a daily basis. you've made it impossible to be happy or have any connections with my friends and family. I am so 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 a part of my life again.. I hate you and I hate myself for ever letting you in. sincerely, me.”
