At 17 I attempted to take my life.
At 19 I was diagnosed with depression.
At 20 I went to university.
At 23 I left university.
At 24 I moved into my own apartment.
At 25 my depression came back.
At 26 I over dosed on my medication.
At 27 I got put on 24 hour suicide watch.
At 28 I got submitted to a mental hospital.
At 29 my life seemed pointless.
At 30 I left this world.

Even when your life seems worthless, there will always be a thing worth living for.
I stayed alive for my family. I tried to get better for my friends.
I tried but no matter how hard I tried, I didn't make it over the last hurdle. Instead of jumping I tripped and fell.  I fell, never to get up again. Now I realise how hard life really is. I couldn't handle the pressure, the expectations.

When I'm sitting at home surrounded by my family, it makes me forget for a while. Forget about my depression, my anxiety, everything. It makes me feel normal. It makes me feel happy. Surrounded by the people who accept me and my illness. Without treating me any different. Without treating me like I'm a ticking time bomb. Waiting to explode.

Opening my eyes to see the usual sight.
The screams.
The blood.
The writing.
I've gotten used to it all.
In a sick way it's sort of home to me now.

A/N

I give up trying to revise.
It's not working.

Vote, comment, blah, blah, blah...
