A safe place for me to share my struggle with my "black dog"; depression.
Trigger warning, I guess.
I'd be thrilled to hear your feedback.

Ever been surrounded by people that should love you, but you suddenly realise they don't? How painful it is to see people you loved and thought they loved you too, be completely indifferent to your feelings.
This is the most horrendous feeling ever. I believed my family loved me they knew what abuse had gone on. At age 50 u needed to discuss it. It was an illustration the family I thought I had where no longer there. But at that point I was in a situation I needed support. If I'd if known the truth behind their lies and deception before I'd got to this point , u could of delt with it. But at that point their reaction traumatized me all over again. I believe they lies and deception was about keeping me silent about my abuse It is soul destroying because you feel your whole life has been a lie.which it has
Life feels like an uncomfortable necessity before sleep. Sleep, on the other hand... feels like an escape. Nothing better that taking a nap and not having to do, think or worry about anything. Like a perfect excuse from living. Oh how I loved it when before surgery they put me on anesthetics. I really fear I could become addicted to them if I had free access. How wonderful to not even feel the time pass.
I cannot help her. I want to help her so much, but I can't. I cannot watch her go through this all on her own and I hate that I can't do anything to take her pain away. I am useless. At the same time I feel so betrayed and I am so angry at her for all those lies, all these years. She says I don't understand her. I really believe what she did was wrong, whatever her reasons. Am I wrong for thinking that?
