\'Tell me how to make the pressure lighter\'
\'To resist the voices that overlap\'
\'To make those memories not (*gate) crash\'
\'Those desperate gasps for air\'..
so immersive in wording, a great read!
thanks for sharing

Oh, A.H., this is a deeply personal account and you are so strong to share. Thanks for sharing. The last line is just such a strong statement!! I have experienced that even in my own life. Thanks again!

Ah, dear Ario a very graphic and organic unwrapping of something deeply personal. From which you have picked up a pearl of resilience that will continue to glisten as the scars will surely fade. Thank you for sharing this

Alicia, your poem provides a great service by the way. Thank you for writing about these symptoms in your poem. I also found these sites that may be a little closer to home (but I encourage readers to still visit NAMI, they run an exceptional site) and might be better for anyone reading your poem and living in the United Kingdom:

mentalhealth.org.uk
mind.org.uk

Cheers, peace, and blessings!

Thanks for the clarification. It makes your poem all the more instructive for someone whom may be wondering what it is like to suffer from the debilitating and constricting effects of mental illness. Of course there\'s plenty of help available for both the one suffering and for their family members: NAMI is dedicated to building better lives for those who face mental illness every day.

Are you or the \'first person\' character in your poem suffering with a permanent disability that limits mobility?
