Prologue : What happend before now

You gain strength, courage and conference by every experience in which you stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the things you think you cannot do.
-Eleanor Roosevelt

Prologue : What happend before now

So there goes. It was a week ago when I finally began losing my mind.

I've seen it coming a mile away but when it was here I never thought it would turn out like this. My mother always told me to talk to someone otherwise I will go mad, like my... like someone, nevermind.

I never wanted to, I'm strong enough to deal with this myself. I'm strong enough to fight this battle inside me all by myself. I should've listened to her. I should've listened to the woman who raised me.

She dealt with this before, so naturally she knew what to do, but I didn't listen. I never listen!

That day I found my weakness. It was terrible. I realized I'm not strong enough. I can't handle this all by myself. I just wished I listened to her.

Mother is always right.

Believe it or not.

It started with a headache, a very light and soft thumping in the middle of my skull. Like someone repeatedly tapping their foot on a surface.

Later on it became a very loud and painfull pounding and hammering. Like a bulldozer raming through buildings. But it all happend inside my head.

It made me confused. My mind was always busy, it kept me busy. I couldn't do anything about it. I went to the doctor a few times but he never told me face- to- face what was wrong with me, he always just told my mother and when we got home she told me not to worry about it... She told me I'm fine, everything going to be fine. The she gave me a bottle with tiny pills inside, she told me I should drink it because it works like heavy strong painkillers.

When I'm alone I could feel myself drifting away. In the middle of the day everything just felt hazy. I would sit om the couch and just zone out and when I blink, I would find myself somewhere else and six hours had gone by.
