Dear Depression

Dear Depression,I bet you've received many letters from others like meFrom those who suffer even when we are having a good day.I know you are only in my life because bipolar invited you.Bipolar tends to invite too many at once.You let yourself into my mind when I was too young to notice.I was blind sided.I didn't understand whyI couldn't lift my body to get out from the warm sheets of my twin sized mattressfor days.I didn't understand whyIt felt as if my head was cemented to the feather filled pillow.You caused a lot of bad thoughts.With those bad thoughts came tears, but only when I was alone.My stomach began to growl morebut, you told my mind that I shouldn't eat.With help I made it through.With help I took control!With his help I now feel nothing, but love. Sincerely, June
