Favorite Quote:
"Soon madness has worn you down. It’s easier to do what it says than argue. In this way, it takes over your mind. You no longer know where it ends and you begin. You believe anything it says. You do what it tells you, no matter how extreme or absurd. If it says you’re worthless, you agree. You plead for it to stop. You promise to behave. You are on your knees before it, and it laughs."
— Marya Hornbacher


my mind is the home to many monsters
clawing at my eyes with their long and twisted nails
blinding me to any form of positivity
so that the sadness they carry will prevail
they’ve torn me to shreds on the inside
and lead me to mirror this pain on my skin for all to see
now im constantly longing to be free
but what besides death can kill the monsters which are a part of me.
