Someone suffering from Bi-polar, contacted me for help out of the country, wanting to take an Overdose of medication for the mental pain. She could not reach her doctor, so I coached her to look on what positive things in life she has, and how important its for her to tell the story, so our community can understand mental illness, and let the stigma go away, and more people will go for help.
this is what she wrote me back after she felt better.
this is what she wrote me back after she felt better.
As my emotions escalate with high speed,
And my inner feelings so much they bleed
My tears stream down at my cheek bone,
And boy, do I feel alone.
The depression overtakes me
My racing thoughts, my biggest enemy
And the memories of my abuse
Who can those pain sooth?
How can I relax
When I'm full of flashbacks
I wish I can forget
The actions I regret.
I look up on the sky
And say oh my
How many tears I've already shed
Lying in bed
And wishing the pain should just disappear
Let them just vanish in the air.
I try with my might
To ride the flight
Despite the obstacles along the way
I will try to make it thru every day.
When the urge for an overdose will come
I will think of my treasures so awesome
How my kids love me and I love them
And I will say oh hashem
Give me the strength I crave
And help me be brave
Riding the wave together
And hopefully get better.
let the depression fly away
And make room for a brighter day.
Hashem give me the courage I need to get well
So for others my story I could tell
Shine hope in my shattered heart
And lets begin with a new start.
