How it Feels…
It gets overwhelming sometimes.
The depression sets in and starts to suffocate.
I feel the prick of tears at the back of my eyes, it stings.
I take deep calming breaths, just like they say you should.
Doesn’t really help because I’m drowning as I breathe in as well.
I recall all the verses I can and start reciting them, repeatedly, desperately, pleadingly.
Then I take some more deep breaths and start pacing wherever I am, hoping it will help.
Finally I remind myself as I often have to do, to take it one day at a time, one hour at a time, one minute at a time and sometimes even a few seconds at a time.
This too shall pass…..
