Depression is like an anchor. 

It holds me down. Holds me back. Holds me together. 

It is responsible for every bad thought I have, yet also the reason why I am still holding on. 

Bad feelings are still feelings all the same.

There's a sort of comfort in depression. In hating yourself. It gives you something to do. Something to focus on. 

Giving in to it is a hell of a lot easier than trying to fix it. I hold on to the sadness. I'm almost afraid to let it go. Afraid that if I do, I'll lose a piece of me. It's been a part of me for way too long. If I let go, I am nothing.

I am not nothing yet.
