sighs...here it goes:
I appreciate the fact that this thread was made to be able to address whats been going on and hopefully it will reach some heads in The Coli.
Throughout this year, its been a roller coaster ride of emotions. I'm still dealing with my mother's passing, being stuck in a rut financially, and fears of being evicted from the apartment. Just last month I quit my part time job in hopes of trying to build something on a business like manner, but the grim reality is that I was using the job as a coping mechanism. Throughout the weeks I went in a downward spiral of depression to the point that I threw up everything I ate. My appetite was a mess, I was emotionally drained, and didn't want to get out of bed. I ended up walking to a Urgent Care facility begging for help. Once I receive the help (prescription wise), the doctor just gave me a big hug and breh...I cried like a newborn coming out the womb. It was the first time somebody hugged me like on a spiritual level since my moms and grandmother was on this earth.
Depression is a invisible friend that comforts you, eat your food, and talks for you. You have to expose it and once it's shown, you will feel comfortable again to know the fact that you need help. We all need help, but it's up to you to find a coping skill until shyt gets better.
Trust me, you are not alone in this battle breh....you are not alone.
