    Okay...I'll be brave and post my poem which I'm having published....
    I think I may have posted it before but I can't remember.lol.
    What Mental Illness Feels Like
    It feels like you're a prisoner
    In your own mind
    Holding you hands up to your
    Looking glass eyes
    But not able to escape

    It feels like being close to yourself
    All the time
    But not knowing who you are
    Wanting to get close to others
    But terrified of letting them in

    It feels like wanting to kill all your emotions
    So you don't hurt anymore
    It feels like the physical pain you cause yourself
    Just to kill all the pain
    You hold buried inside

    It feels like starving your body
    Because you feel like a bad person
    And like you need to be punished
    For all the things you've done - past and present
    That those around you say weren't your fault anyway

    It feels like memories
    Haunting and teasing you
    Always there, and never going away
    All the things they did to you
    And the way they made you feel

    It feels like fear
    Fear that this is all you'll ever know
    That all hope is lost for you
    And people will give up
    And label you something you're not

    It feels like being free
    Finally finding someone else
    With Borderline Personality Disorder
    You can understand you
    And at last....
    Your lips aren't silent anymore

    Thanks Katie. :)
    Yeah. I'm hoping that those who read it and suffer from a mental illness won't feel so alone and will know that there is help for them out there. If I just help one person to realize that, then I have succeeded in my life. :)

    Night night hun.

  • I can identify with most of that.

    Seems Mr S didn't mean what he said about starting again, or doesn't really believe it. I want to cry but there is nowhere private to cry. I'm going to be alone, and please nobody tell me that it is better to be alone that in a relationship that isn't working, because being alone SUCKS, and I feel so lonely. I don't want a friend, I want a partner and a companion. Seems like he wants the best bits of me, but isn't prepared to put in the effort that a relationship needs to make it work. I'm never going to trust anyone again, it's not worth it.
