I'm not okay.

And somehow I'm told that's okay?

That what I'm feeling is normal.

If it was normal why is it something we've become ashamed to express?

As if it's a disease to be depressed.

Like you're some virus needing a cure from.

Even though this "virus" doesn't seem to have a cure.

Its something that comes and goes in waves.

One day you're fine and the next you feel like your drowning.

In a never ending wave.

In the cycle of self doubt, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts that swirl over your head.

I'm not okay.

Not yet anyway.
