So important. These are our people that are struggling. These are our friends. These are our muses & mentors. These are our families. These are - ourselves. Depression has a siren song, once you’re under its grasp it’s hard to let go. The darkness and despair take place of joy. We need to discuss the darkness and keep our people alive. You are not your mental illness. It is not the least of you, nor the best of you. It is simply irrevocably part of you. There is no fault in that. To understand how the demons of mental illness attack our loved ones we need to love them better. Pay more attention to their ticks and triggers. Love them through it. Please ask for help. There is no shame in needing support. It’s not weakness. Quite the opposite; it conveys strength, It’s your humanity proclaiming it’s very existence. Please. Love and be loved. Look after your peeps and don’t forget to let your peeps look after you. Practice forgiveness. This goes a long way in life. An important lesson that many of us don’t learn - don’t ignore people. It’s ultimate disrespect and makes that person feel worthless. This culture of ‘ghosting’ friends is disgusting. Send love to an old friend. It means more than you think. #poetsofinstagram #poetryofig #lisalunneypoetry #suicide #suicideprevention #awareness #pma #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealth #respectI want to live All I want Is to live But I'm losing this battle With myself A civil war Inside my brain Stay alive I beg Long enough To outlive it To emerge from the darkneas Don't become it's victim Don't fall prey to its clutches Fight Stay alive Outsmart it One day You will wish I will wish That you had stayed #poemofig #suicideawareness #suicideprevention #carriefisher #yegpoetry #yeg #amwriting #canlit #mentalillnessSo fragile. . . . . . . . . . #lisalunneypoetry #lisalunney #poetrygram #poetry #poetryporn #poetryhive #poetryofig #poemofig #poem #poetsofig #poetsofinstagram #amwriting #goodvibesSuspend your beliefs. . . . . . . . . . #lisalunneypoetry #poem #poetsofig #poemofig #poemsofig #poetryporn #poetryoftheday #poetryhive #poetrycommunity #poetry #poetryofinstagram #poetrygram #wordporn #positivequotes #positivequotes #amwriting #yeg #yegpoetryTranslate
