It’s hard to admit
That sometimes
You submit,
To the thoughts
That degrade your health.
Your condition is not for attention.
Your condition is not that extensive.
You’re in the middle
Of the spectrum somewhere.
But when you finally confess,
That well,
You’re kind of a mess,
They dismiss it
As “just a phase”.
Until finally you find the person
That will listen
Instead of worsen,
You’re left alone to fight
Your own thoughts.
