Being Vulnerable

-

I have never felt so vulnerable in my life . Hearing voices from the boys calling me mean names makes me feel shameful. I kept telling them to stop but they wouldn't stop. They kept calling me "bald " and " island " . 

It all started when I pulled my hair. I have the tendency of pulling my hair cause I think too much . The more I think  the more I pulled my hair. It has become a habit .

At the age of 13, I was being diagnosed with depression. My grades started to drop and I kept harming myself. I also tried to end my life numerous of times . It was really difficult for me to cope back then.

My parents brought me to see the psychiatrist and psychologist. Things were slowly coming back to normal. However, I dropped back into the hole again.  I started feeling depressed again . From harming myself to being suicidal. Everything went upside down. 

Everyday I felt down and lonely. Thoughts kept coming into my mind saying that I am better off dead. Those were the challenges I faced everytime I felt depressed.

For those of you who are feeling down and suicidal, you are not alone . It's ok to not be ok . It's ok to cry and it's ok to fall sometimes. We are humans anyway right ?

Poem About Sorrow

 Feeling empty and numb, Doesn't really taste as good as wine. When loneliness and darkness come, My mind would be full of chaos. Day by days sorrow come, And I ponder the reason behind this. My days of weakness has not come to an end, And it seems like there's no way out . Come and see the wonders of the Earth, Isn't it fantastic and beautiful as it was? However,trash came and ruined it, Oh my God how sad it is. Feeling trap in your heart, That's not a good feeling as it is. I wept and wept  but no one responds, To be full of desired to get out from this . By,  Jocelyn Ng Shu Yee.
