You're so right. It's so much easier to wallow in the dark! I've forgotten what it's like to have energy, except on the days when I DO have energy where I'm like, "Why was I wasting so much time before??" It's a cycle, no doubt.

I just don't want to sink any deeper, you know? I guess it's like that for some people too, where it's just easy to eat pie every day. But everything has a concequence, and with depression I lose so much TIME. I'm going to wake up and be 35! How the heck did that happen?

The dust mocks me. It's the only witness to my daily failure as a human being. I stare at it and it stares back. I avoid its stern reprimanding stare and pretend I'm far away. Vanquishing dust makes me Superman the next day, when I wake up and see the "clean." Hasn't happened in a while tho.

Showers no longer hold any interest for me. The agony of it is that in the shower, anything is possible. I can plan out my day, feel productive and be in control of my life. Then I'm out, and drying my hair becomes a nightmare that sends me back to bed, exhausted. So not fair.

SAD is isolating. No one understands. Except the dust, which sees me for who I am.
