Stupid Mental Health

I can feel it starting again. I can feel the buzzing in my head, I can feel the numbness behind my eyes. I can feel the ignorance as I read things. I can feel the sadness in my core and the wall I build around to lock everything out. I can feel it happening, and I can’t think or remember of how I start to make myself better. I know I’ve got to make myself better, and I will. But I need to remember I’ve done the first part - recognised it. Right, better crack on and kick some depression ass.
