What Is Wrong With Me

What’s wrong with me?  I’m not normal, you see
It’s an effort to get out of bed
People love to talk about what comes easy
What’s wrong with me?  I’m not normal you see
I’m sick of this topic of you and me and normalcy
Too many thoughts attacking my head
What’s wrong with me?  I’m not normal, you see
It’s an effort to get out of bed

Sounds a lot like depression. When I am depressed I do not want to get out of bed, nor shower, nor eat I just want to be left alone.

Hey, I understand. I have been sleeping the day away far too frequently. Painful things happen in life. Our bodies get depressed, our souls feel oppressed. It is hard. Just count every time you DO get up as a Victory! (That's what I have to do, in order not to lose all hope!) Hang in there! Peace and Blessings!
