I'm Sorry

I'm Sorry

A Poem by not_today
"

yeah okay

"
You say it's all in my head
My depression
My anxiety
I'm getting help for it now
But that's because it got bad
Crying myself to sleep every night
Anxiety that would pop up out of nowhere
Panic attacks nearly every day
Is that all in my head?
When I have to leave class because I can't see
Because I'm hyperventilating
Because my heart felt like it had already exploded
Because if I'm in that room for another second I might die
Because I'm crying too much to focus
Because my brain is screaming at me
Because suddenly it feels like everyone in the room wants me dead
Because it feels like I'm gonna puke
And then pass out
When all of that happens
Is it just in my head?
You say I'm choosing to feel like this
You mean I'm CHOOSING to be too depressed to get out of bed for a week
To tell my friends
Sorry I have other plans
When I just couldn't bring myself to get up
That I'm choosing to think that I'd be better off dead than being a burden here
That all of that
Is just in my head?

You said before that you feel it too
So what
Now you just don't feel it?
You say that's not at all how it works
Then explain it to me
Because what you're saying isn't making much sense
I'm so confused
Then you stop talking
Was it something I said?
If it was
I didn't mean to upset you
It's just that what you were saying didn't really make sense to me
I'm sorry if I upset you
I'm sorry I bother you
I'm sorry if my talking to you is a bad thing
I'll stop if it is
Because I'm only dragging you down
I'm sorry for everything
