Drug Abuse (A Depression Treatment)

by Anne Engelen

Tossing and turning

Not only in my bed

but also in my head

 

Poisoning my body

pill after pill

The meds are shrinking

my survival will

 

My thoughts are

no longer mine

Session after session

“I”

decline

 

My identity absorbed

by somekind of drug

 

Who cares?

 

They all shrug!

people don't understand how imprisoned the drugs can make you, and i think very simply you identify and share these feelings...

Depression is such a beast, however, here, you managed to put it in it's place with your words.
