It's a late night. Your laying in bed alone, something you've become accustomed to. Your fan is on in the background and your earbuds are in and playing music.
You message your girlfriend. She doesn't reply, so you assume she is asleep and send her a goodnight message. She replies saying she is busy, and will be for a while.
You think large of it and and jump to conclusions. You do this a lot, and it prevents you from sleep as you drown in the thoughts and scenarios your mind begins producing.
   With every passing minute it gets worse and worse. You try doing anything you can to distract your mind from running wild, but with little success.
   You can only lay there in your own depression and sorrows until you fall into slumber, or the  thoughts finally slip by and you can finally take a deep breath and relax.
It's only then does the process repeat it's self until you find professional help to solve your problems.
But until then, you are trapped. Being held under water by the deepest darkest thoughts in your mind. Your gasping for air, but get nothing but water. Your lungs fill with water. You just want a little breathe of air, but only get water.
Until one day, you finally stop fighting. You let go and slip into the void that has been so hard trying to pull you in. It's then that you take your last breathe of air and finally cease to exsist....
