Hello Darkness, My Old Friend
I refer to my depression as Hello Darkness, My Old Friend. I haven't referred to it as that until recently. It just seem fitting. Always there, like a toxic friend from the past that you refuse to break away from.
This is my letter relinquishing the control that depression has on me. I know that I have an illness but I do not have to let it make me despondent. Always Hopelessly Hopeful.
**I came across this on Facebook. I am not sure where it came from or who wrote it.**
