The Mirror
Dear Mom, This is supposed to be a confession, but it is also to be written in the form of a letter, so there are certain rules that I need to follow. Usually, I begin all of my letters to you discussing my state of mind, and then I fill in the heart of it with what I have done with my life since my last letter (or, more often, phone call). Those messages can get repetitive and dull and I have no interest in repeating myself.

Is This Forever?
You’ve been here a while now, depression. I’m not sure I remember a time without you. Those memories of a different type of mind seem like something from a dream. I don’t know if they’re real. Did I ever have a mind so quiet? Or is that just how I imagine it would have been?

Mental Illness Doesn't Need to be Fought Alone
Depression hits different these days. I used to not clean my room and not leave for months on end. Now, it is more robotic. I didn't wash my hair for almost 2 weeks, but I showered every day. I don't eat, but I have been drinking water and protein shakes. I still do the things that make me feel good, I just do them a little more sad.

The Writer's Mind
"For me, writing is such an escape, and I felt very lucky to have this to run away to." – Rachel Joyce Sometimes I wonder, is it only when a person has mental difficulties that they have the talent to write. Most famous authors suffered from mental illnesses and many of them ended their lives because of it. Sylvia Plath was trying to use writing to overcome her struggles but ended up gassing herself in her kitchen. Virginia Woolf has to be institutionalized because of the loss and the abuse she went through. Hemingway who loved boxing, hunting, and sailing, shot himself in the mouth, making his fans wonder if the image he was drawing of himself was just a mask for all his insecurities.

Depression
Should I even bother writing any of this down? I feel like it will just be discovered, read, and then used against me. These would be my feelings, my thoughts, and my emotions. These are not to be read then used against me yet somehow I feel they will be. Nothing feels safe anymore or should I say private.
