sometimes i think about how i used to love getting lost in a new book but now it feels like i just stare at the pages without absorbing anything, like a reminder of how trapped i feel and i wonder if ill ever find the stories i used to crave.
i just opened the blinds for the first time in days and saw my neighbor’s yard, all green and overgrown while mine is dead and barren, kinda makes me wish i could grow something but i can't even keep a houseplant alive anymore, let alone myself, feeling like my whole world just stopped and i have nothing left to give.
if you are feeling overwhelmed right now, take a deep breath and remember that you have faced challenges before and emerged stronger. this moment is just a part of your journey, and brighter days are on the horizon. #MentalHealthSupport #HopeExists

sitting here in my tiny apartment with the same stack of unopened mail from six months ago, and i scroll through photos of friends celebrating promotions and vacations while my whole world revolves around caring for someone who is not getting better, and the sound of their labored breathing fills the silence as the clock ticks and reminds me it has been years since i felt that freedom.
