Nostalgia.

I stare at the ceiling.


Just reminiscing my life.


Something I do every Saturday night.


My mental health has been deteriorating, And over time it has been getting worse.



So... Why not live in my delusions for a bit?


Past memories. Past experiences.
Sometimes I just want to go to the vast realm of nostalgia. Sometimes I wish I could be a kid again.
A time where I had no worries.

A time where I didn't have to worry about caring about what condition the world was in.

A time where I could be happy and face no consequences cause of it.

A time where I could be myself without having to put on that mask.


Nostalgia... What even is nostalgia?
According to google, I guess

"A sentimental longing or  wistful affection for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations."


...

Sounds about right.





Sometimes I just wish I could go back. But yet I long for something I can't ever get back.


...


Why do I long for things I can't even get back?







As my depression worsens.
I look more into the past.

And I live in the past.

And think about how happy I once was.

I look at myself now, and wonder.

Where did it all go wrong?



I just don't know what to do anymore.



People say "Don't live in the past! Look forward to your future instead!"

The thing is...













I don't see myself having a future.


Nor do I ever see myself being happy.

I see myself in a cold hole. With nothing left.

But this horrible fucking feeling.
