My anxiety (Not a poem)
Ever since we met, you’ve been a weight on my shoulders that always held me down making even the smallest things nearly impossible. You took some of my most memorable moments and ruined them with your presence. You pushed my happiness aside and made yourself the star of this show. You’ve always been selfish like that. Moments of excitement turn into moments of fear and panic when you and your partner in crime, depression come around.
You two hand in hand, know how to doubt my capabilities and my worth. You both put me at war against myself for what felt like an eternity. Taking any self confidence and burying it in doubt and insecurities that you made up. Although I hate when you are here it makes me appreciate when you are gone. When you leav e i appreciate the little things I can’t do when you’re around. I makes me find strength and confidence in myself in a whole new way. I also want to thank you because of the way you and your buddy depression made me feel. I talk about you, a lot. So much that I have made friends and helped people through hard times. Thank you for breaking me down and tearing me apart because it’s making me a stronger fighter.
