Starting a blog
Hello everyone, I have been trying to find a way to deal with my demons and recently I introduced myself to writing. I have started a blog and I would be glad if you could check that out and give your opinions about my writing. It would be really helpful. I am providing a link to my blog.

@suckerforpain. Writing is such a great way to sort through your thoughts for those who are able. I will be sure to check out your blog when I am back at my desk. Best wishes 😊

@suckerforpain you are a poet :-) Poetry is how I deal with life as well. I wish you well on your journey :-)
@suckerforpain
Lovely writing :) Writing is so good to express emotions we would just hide otherwise. Hope to see more!
@Yinyer
Thank you for the appreciation. Yes, writing does help a lot. I think most people who are unable to express themselves verbally, use art to express their emotions.
@suckerforpain - I am so glad that blogging has been helpful for you! Unfortunately, one of the site policies is that we are not allowed to share offsite contact information, personal sites, etc., so I have removed the link you provided. I do welcome you to share some of those same thoughts here in our forums, if you are interested, or to continue blogging since it sounds like it's been a really positive thing for you so far! :)
@Anomalia
I am sorry. I just didn't want to share it with people I know but I wanted to share what I feel, that's why I shared the link here. I had no idea it was a violation. I won't do it again.
@suckerforpain - No problem! I figured you just weren't aware, so I wanted to let you know. And I definitely encourage you to share your thoughts and writing here - I completely understand how sometimes it doesn't feel possible or good to share with the people in our offline lives right away, and this can be a great place to get some feedback, release some feelings, etc. :)
@Anomalia
Thank you. I will surely do.
Depression
The emptiness crawls in every night by my side
to sing me lullabies of my destroying thoughts,
which surrounds me with distraught and feelings which seem like a awful lot for an individual to absorb.
It keeps me up at night while I contrite upon hearing
the sounds of pounding of my battered heart and those of my silent sobs.
It follows me from previous night to the next day,
which makes me want to keep sleeping for the entire day to chase my thoughts away.
But I have to get up, for the sake of following some goddamn rules
which were build by a fool who was lucky enough to not go through this feeling that I have to.
It's unending and suffocating to see myself give up each day
only to go back to bed at the end of the day to stay awake anyway.
You know what sucks?
It's not when everybody sees you as a disappointment, it sucks when you do.
It's hurts every time I look into the mirror,
and the only alternate is to think of myself lying in the pool of my own blood.
I wish it would all just stop; the pain, the fear, the bruises, the tears,
I wish to breathe the fresher air.
The one which gives me the warmth of its hug,
and I know it may seem like I am on drugs but I don't want to feel alone anymore,
when I was the only one who closed that door.
I know I can't open it again,
but I can no longer take this pain and this feeling of disdain; I just want to feel alive again.
I don't want to be lost anymore.
I just want to defeat my demons in this war.
@suckerforpain your a very good writer!
