MY DEPRESSION
MY DEPRESSION
Exactly!
what is my depression about?
that is the question be
is this the feeling faced?
would or could you call it that
of this thing inside my head,
of most mornings feeling flat,
with a score
of nothing more than a four,
or is it just!
a feeling of being miserable
and can’t explain why,
where a teary start is a part of the play,
in the start of a brand-new day.
Medication has had lots to answer for,
in order to keep me steady,
however, for me personally
with TMS being new kid on block;
it did help for a while;
then the dreaded tears
and of hopelessness appeared,
and kicked back in,
and dashed the TMS dream,
now wondering and considering
what is this all about?
there is an option for me to explore
to be back on the ECT machine,
and hopefully no consequences
of what had happened before.
ECT has assisted in the past
and helped to lift my spirits,
but this time part of the family,
has said “why?”
so therefore, I believe,
I am in a no-win situation,
I do want this thing to go away
and feel better conceptually;
and not have flat of mornings be,
but in the end, I believe
the choice of what I do, is my own!
and what is good mentally for me,
and for my days,
but in order to achieve an ECT goal
I have to move my digs!
and I am an apprehensive soul.
So, I ask the question still,
exactly what is my depression about?
and there is no doubt
I don’t really like it as a friend.
