wonderous

But I'm also tired of being blunt and forthcoming and having no filter on my tongue.

I stop myself before I intentionally hurt someone's feelings, but I don't speak up when someone hurts mine.

Depression is squeezing your head with the palms of your hands to try to snuff out the negative thoughts. It’s crying until you can’t breathe and hiding your face so no one can see the pain you can’t explain, choking on words and a nest of butterflies in your gut, staring at the lunch you prepared and saying “nevermind” even though your stomach was growling five minutes prior.

Depression is wanting a hug, a rub on the back, or a lap to cry on but given “I don’t know why you’re sad” and “I have it worse”, as if depression was a choice like picking out your outfit for the day. Its like sinking in the deep end of a pool and letting your lungs burn for air but getting water instead or entering a tunnel but seeing no light at the end.
