The Silver Lining Having anxiety and #depression is like knowing that the sun is coming back but still being worried its gone. Just like clouds cover the sun as does anxiety cover my good thoughts, my sunshine, my happiness. #depression is like the rain. It can rain for days and days But then you wake up one morning, The rain has stopped. You know it's coming back sooner or later But you pray for later. Anxiety and #depression is wanting to be around people whilst also never wanting anyone to bother you Its wanting to scream to the world how you feel but being too afraid to bother other people. Its wanting to wear a certain outfit but being too afraid of what others will think. Its knowing you have a #life and and a job and responsibilities to attend to but still not being able to find a reason to drag yourself out of bed. Its knowing that you are surrounded by people who love and support you but still feeling so alone, so useless, so unwanted. Its wanting to live #life but also hoping you never wake up again because having to deal with the constant reminder of these dark thoughts are getting too much that your only alone time is sleeping but sleeping had become more a of a chore. Sometimes though, through all the clouds and rain theres a silver lining. Its the teenagers lost in books that remind them they're not alone, to escape the reality in which they are living. Its the singer or the band who's words have saved your #life. Its those friends who although are miles and miles apart, can do a better job of being a friend than the one next door. #life is pretty shitty and sometimes you feel like its going to always be that way, you just have to find your silver lining and show #life what you're made of. Anxiety does not define you #depression does not control you You are you You are someones silver lining Those clouds will pass The rain will stop The sun will come back
