Don’t put down the pen just yet
There is still so much left to write
Your story has just begun
Don’t give up so soon
There is always another chapter
There can always be a happy ending
You just need to keep writing
About Don’t Put Down The Pen:
This week, I wanted to share a poem I wrote for Mental Health Awareness Month instead of another type of post. For anyone struggling with depression or suicidal thoughts, know that you’re not alone and that there are always ways to deal with these issues so please don’t give up. Your life is worth living even if it doesn’t feel like it right now.
Often we don’t realise a person is suffering until it’s too late. I hope everyone can take a minute to really check in on friends and family to make sure they are okay. Because you never know who is struggling because most mental illnesses like depression are invisible to those that aren’t experiencing it.
I suffer from depression myself and there have been times when finding a reason to stay alive was not easy. I’m much better now but I do occasionally have moments when I feel really down. And that is what inspired “Don’t Put Down The Pen.” When you are at your lowest it’s easy for your depression to takeover. Even when you know you’re loved it can make you feel like you’re all alone. I hope anyone reading this that is suffering from depression or any mental health problems chooses to seek help or at least talk to close friends/family instead of giving up.
