zenmondoYou would think having lived more of my life diagnosed with mental illness than not, I would get used to it. You would think that I would have learned to be at ease with it. You would think that I could just shrug off its effects in my day to day life. You would think.
Today has been odd. I have had waves of anxiety and depression wash over me.
One of them even had a physical effect on me. I got pains in my body, in my side and in my chest -- it became difficult to breath. Very unpleasant to say the least.
I try to be unashamed at how I was made. Unapologetic for my mind that is considered unhealthy. But today, I just want to be well.
I am tired of being who I am.

I know the feeling, man. I was so filled with nauseated doom last night I almost didn't want any ice cream for dessert. That sounds like I'm being facetious, but it's true.
