Depression Grew - by jan webb

Paragraph 4, Poem = I Hate That I Suffer From Mental Illness

October 20th 2008 21:01



I must say, when I hear of another person who has this same affliction,
it truly breaks my heart. It is, in all honesty, life altering.Nothing, prepares
a person for the darkness, sadness, or the emotional roller coaster ride,
it takes you on.I have heard that it runs in families. Which must be true
because, I have two sisters and one brother, out of eight in total, who have

been diagnosed with some form of mental illness. All of which have panic attacks,
depression, or bipolar.I was the first, for me, it began at the age of twenty-two.
For the rest, they were maybe, a couple years older.I try to help them as much as
possible, because, I know exactly what they are going through. I will talk to them
anytime, and I hope, it helps, in some way. My youngest brother is in a mental hospital,
as, I, am writing this. He attempted to take the easy way out. Thank god, he didn't succeed.
I spoke to him yesterday, he was crying. I wanted to hug him, but I couldn't even see him.
I told him that it would get better, to give it time. But, I couldn't say when, and it is never
soon enough!



This poem, is how I honestly feel about my illness.


I Hate That I Suffer From Mental Illness

I despise
that
I, exist!

A mere
puzzle,
of mentality.

Condemned
to breathe,
eternity.

Absent, of
reality.
