Dont fear the reaperSemicolon, associated with depression, it means things could have ended, but never.Within the past year, specifically the last few months, I've been dealing with a lot. My struggles with depression and anxiety have seemed to be at an all time high. I've felt like I'm not good enough for anyone, much less myself. It's been hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel and keep going. Even as I write this my heart aches with the realisation that I've hurt so many while I've been hurting. Something I always try to avoid. I stop talking to people and I don't let them into my world as a means to protect them. But in the end it just hurts them. A few months ago I started drawing this symbol everywhere. It's essentially two smiling faces, one right side up and one upside down. To me it means that no matter the situation, whether things are going terribly or things are going swell, to always try and have a smile. Even though I'm not really the smiling type this little symbol somehow comforts me in my fight against darkness. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀I want to thank my artist Aaron at Rise Above in Orlando for taking me as a walk in and fitting me in between appointments. And also for letting me hug him afterwards hahaAccept your demons #demon #dementor #depression #anxiety #mentalhealth #blackwork
