Day 34: This Mess We’re In (Me, Myself, & I)

I can’t remember the days. All I know is I’m sleeping more, I’m lethargic, my body is starting to feel what I feel on the inside. I’m aware that I’m exhibiting classic signs of depression. I’m even craving sweets.
I care but the feeling of disconnection is so prevalent that I cannot see a way to bridge the gap. My birthday draws near and I panic somewhat, fearing that it’s going to echo birthdays past…ringing of disappointment and loneliness.
I don’t understand why I just can’t be happy.
I don’t post because I don’t want to talk about this mess we’re in - me, myself, and I. I have empaths following me and I’m not trying to share feelings that I’m pretty sure they know all too well, only to have it be a trigger for them.
But I figure maybe we all just need to know someone out there understands. We’re not alone.
Confession:
No confession.
Oracle:
No oracle.
Body:
Classic symptoms of depression. Body aches, sleeping more often, lack of motivation, emotional eating. Oh yes.
Virtue/Vice:
Virtue: Considering an alternative plan, revisiting a dream that can still come true.
Vice: having the sads.
Relinquish:
Hopelessness. Though I honestly have no idea how to give any of this up because when I think I have and end up back here, it’s clear I haven’t.
Inspiration/Gods:
One Direction. Yes indeed. Watching their interviews gave me a few well needed laughs.
Structure:
The battle between letting myself break down and fighting it. I don’t know if that’s structure but that’s pretty much the architecture of my day.
