Me, Myself and I
I have Learning Disabilities
And Tourette Syndrome too
Living with these two things
The hardships I've been through
I'm also overweight
But despite all these things
I still love life
And all that it brings

The Unseen Beast
It's like you're late for school and you can't get out of bed because a part of you has wrapped its tail around your spinal column and taken control. You know what you have to do, but no matter the struggle, the force of will you muster, the sheer amount of acid building up around your muscles fatigued from weeks on end of battling this demon – no matter what means of combat you employ, the thing always seems to strangle your prone body with its wretched appendage.
You want to wake up and go outside, but the demon keeps you pinned to your bedspread. You want to go to sleep in the hopes of something better come morning, but its sickening voice whispers continually in your ear, keeping you awake until it's done toying with you. You hope this moment will come soon, but the more you hope, the longer it continues.
You want to be alone, but it tells you you're pathetic - a waste of space if you don't do something with yourself. You want to be with others, but it always tags along, poin

What it's Like
I grew up depressed.
I was pushed around.
I was the subject of ridicule.
I was the scapegoat.
Because of all the years of constant torment,
I thought,
Or felt,
I had the right,
To do the same to others.
These others could be people
Who did nothing to me.
Honestly...
Just because someone,
Whether they are from the past,
Or in the present,
Does something to you-
Does not mean you have to take it out of someone in your future.
Does that sound fair?
Did they deserve it?
I learned what I was doing the hard way.
I bottled up my pain
To be let out at whoever got in my way.
My parents didn't know how to handle me.
My cousin and best friend understood.
Zoe had gone through a lot of the same things.
Adina knew me better than most of my family.
They gave me hope,
And that helped me push myself to new possibilited-
Especially within tough circumstances.
I have never known anyone else
Who believed in me like them.
People have told me I am a social butterfly.
But sometimes,
My emotions get in

Depression is like...
Depression is like drowning. When it start, it’s like waves crashing on you. Little ones. They let you exhausted and breathless, but they’re little and you are used to be strong. So you kick your feet to reach the surface, you take a good breath and you calm yourself. You can even get out of the water.
Everything seems to be fine. You go on with your life, but then a week, a month or a year later, something happen. It could be a big or a small events, it doesn’t really matter in the end, because it’s like someone pushed you over the edge and you fall back in the same place as you came close to sink before, only this time it’s worse than ever.
Still you are a swimmer, right? A fighter. You got through bad situations in the past, through so much more and you don’t understand why this time it’s so though. Why every actions ask so much from you. Why tiny things, things you used to brush aside with ease, some you believed dealt with, come back and p
