Birthday Blues
It's 1:30am.
I have suffered from depression for years. The last week has been especially rough for me and I wish I could snap myself out of it. You see, today is my 19th birthday. I should be over the moon, but I'm not. I really just see it as any other day, and I just feel like crawling up in my duvet and not emerging until my next birthday, because maybe my mood will have lifted by them. Do you know what I mean? Has anybody else felt especially down in the weeks leading up to their birthday? Do you think maybe it's because I just want to fade into the background, but I can't when it's a day all about me? Does anybody have any suggestions to help lift me out of this, even temporarily? Or any tips for avoiding these feelings next year? Any comments/suggestions appreciated. =/
