More Than a Break
I have depression. Most people do these days, but I was diagnosed when I was a kid with depression, anxiety, ADHD, and ADD. Now, this means that I’m overwhelmed on a constant basis. I forget to eat, I forget to sleep, I forget what I was just thinking about 5 seconds ago because it’s noise. Constant noise. It never slows, it never stops, sometimes my thoughts seem to race so face it sounds like static in my head and I give myself a panic attack. It’s not a fun life to live, but I’ve lived it long enough and made the choices I made to lead me to my daughter. She’s beautiful; her hair the color of sun rays, her eyes the hue of the ocean... this curious dark olivey skin with cute little freckles that somehow she was born with while I remain pale and translucent and burn by the light of the moon.
