Depression Poem

[Drifty]

The year has been going fast even though I’ve been through a lot
It was really hard to deal with while I fought
High stress and anxiety almost every day
It was becoming a battle, my family would say

I was hospitalized for manic depression
I’m getting better after every therapy session
It’s not perfect, I still get manic, anxious, or depressed
It gets worse and worse when I’m stressed

I had panic attacks every day for half a year
It was getting worse every day, which would increase more fear
The doctor gave me antidepressants, but I got manic
Life got worse, and what exacerbated was the panic

My life hasn’t been the best
My suggestion is to get help if you’re depressed
Thanks for reading this, it means so much
Remember, get help, or else it might get out of touch

I'm doing well and I'm on the right medications
Getting better does take some dedication
Remember to have hope when you are low
It's the lessons we learn from in life that makes us grow
