Submission Friday:
Daren Thomas Magee, ‘The Rain’
Lately I’ve been struggling with the fact that recovery from mental illness isn’t linear and I reached a point in my life where I snapped and broke down… 10 months after last time. I’m still trying to find the balance and learn to really accept and be content with myself. I thought I had been doing alright but then I find myself in situations where people hurt me and I had no control. Maybe I hadn’t liked myself as much as I thought I did to find myself in that.
Turning my phone off and focussing on unbottling the many painful memories and experiences I suppressed for years to try and “get over it” is my way of coming back to self acceptance.
Even when recovery from mental illness is awkward and uncomfortable and painful, when all you want to do is suppress it and pretend it doesn’t exist….
