Outta My Mind

The way the mind works is quite silly.
The way an anxious mind works can be a little bit scarier...

The anxious mind will over analyze every little detail about a certain situation.

It will come up with conclusions before the situation is even finished.

The anxious mind will make it seem like you're left in the dust.

That everything you did was a waste of time.

That you should regret it because now you're the one hurting.



The way a depressive mind works can be life threatening...


The depressive mind takes you back to every mistake you've ever made.

Every failure you thought you left in the dust.

The depressive mind will take all of those anxious, over analyzed thoughts and amplify them until you can hear nothing else but the failure, worry, and regret.


The thoughts will get louder.

And Louder....


With no escape.

Unable to speak.

Forced to listen.

Forced to stay silent.


The Louder it gets the more your head pounds and throbs.

Harder and Harder..

Louder and Louder...

Throbbing.
Pounding.
Throbbing.
Worry.
Frustration.
Anger.
Anxiety.
Sadness.

You begin to feel like you might just


SNAP!




I am not just here to talk at you... I am also telling myself this...

 
 
Those thoughts are full of shit.
 
 
Yes, there are many other ways I could have said that sentence.
 
If you want something to stick be blunt.
 
 
Those stupid thoughts that have controlled your life for so long are LIES.
 
 
 
You are better than anything you've told yourself, ever.
 
And though those thoughts may continue to creep back into your mind and ruin your life.
 
Remind yourself that they are lies.
That they need to shove off.
 
You are better than the bullshit.
 
 
Godspeed <3
