Shup up black dog

Mind whirring.
 
Black dog barking.
 
I need to get some sleep.
 
Lists.
 
Lists.
 
Don't forget that.
 
Remember this.
 
Mind spinning.
 
I need to get some sleep.
 
Black dog barking.
 
"You're a failure."
 
"You can't do this."
 
Shut up black dog.
 
Leave me alone.
 
Panic.
 
Breathless.
 
I can do this.
 
Step by step.
 
I need to get some sleep.

  1. I've been reading your blog archives the past few days, I've been struggling myself lately, and your words have really helped me. Usually I can pull myself out of it, but lately its been getting harder and harder.

    A lot of the time when I feel low, I read Love, Stargirl. I've read it at least once a year since I bought it age 17ish. Its so uplifting, and it helps me a lot. I thought I'd share this with you because it might make the bad days feel a little less bad.

    Anyway, stay strong. You're an inspiration x
