Illusion
Having depression puts you in a place where you feel numb, empty and cold while it's dark 24-7.
Having anxiety is like having someone in your ear reminding you that you are not good enough while you worry about everything that makes you so nervous no one wants to be around you.
Being a recovering drug addict is more than a daily battle an more like the all day every day battle. A craving for your drug your friend but it is truly only an illusion. Wanting it so bad you could claw your arms open while you screamed.
When you have depression, anxiety, and you are a recovering drug addict it is like being in a completely dark room with voices reminding you of every wrong you ever done to make you remember your not good enough and screaming till you don't have a voice because your carving an illusion.
