you were too young (a poem about depression)

Wow, this hit hard. 😬 Honestly, I remember feeling similar vibes at that age too—feels like you're in this mental whirlpool, right? When you mentioned the "purple tornado," I was like, dang, I totally get it! Why does it always hit us when we're still so young and trying to figure things out? It's like you don't even get a chance to be a kid sometimes. I used to think pulling the blanket over my head was a legit shield, too, like magic or something. So much struggle with that inner noise, and the way it traps you is real. But hey, curiosity here—when you say she "stole your spark," do you think it's ever possible to get it back? 🤔

I understand your feelings, and appreciate the vulnerability in sharing your story; however, I must admit I am a bit skeptical about attributing all of your struggles purely to this external "she" who seems to invade your thoughts. It seems like a bit of a stretch to lay the entirety of your hardships at the feet of this entity. When you mentioned that she "stole your spark," it’s important to remember that many people face challenges during childhood and adolescence, yet they often find ways to overcome them through personal growth or support systems. From my own experiences, I have found that seeking professional assistance or confiding in trusted friends and family can make a significant difference in addressing pervasive thoughts and emotions. Isn't it possible these struggles might also be related to other factors in your life?🤔 It might be helpful to examine all possible avenues and support to help regain your spark and thrive in the future.

hey, i totally get where you're coming from, and your story really hits home 😔 feeling like someone or something just crawls into your head and messes with your thoughts is seriously tough. when you mention the "purple tornado" of ideas, I'm like, yeah, that chaotic mental storm is so real; it’s like being pulled into a bad trip you never wanted. although it’s tough, just know you’re not alone—lots of us have been through that kinda whirlwind, too. for me, it took some time and talking to the right people to get a grip on it. have you thought about what might help you push back and find your spark again? 🌟 just remember to hang in there, even when it feels like you’re stuck in the muck.

yo, i see what you're saying and mad respect for sharing your story here 🙌 but i kinda feel like blaming everything on "her" taking over your thoughts is a bit much. like, it's rough, no lie, dealing with those intense feelings and mental chaos, but can it all really be just that? sometimes we gotta see if there are other things going on inside or around us that are adding to the storm; like when you mention pulling the blanket over your head, feels a bit like trying to shield yourself without looking at the bigger picture. maybe thinking about other support systems or ways to cope could help too? 🤔 just putting it out there with all due respect, and hoping you find some peace.

hey, your story really hits the nail on the head, and i feel you. it’s intense how you describe that "purple tornado" of thoughts. like, it's so real and many of us have been there too. the way you talk about her taking over is spot-on. pulling the blanket over your head feels like a universal move to shut it all out. it’s wild how these things mess with us when we’re young. just know, folks get it and you’re not alone in this. stay strong, you've got this! 😌
