Essay: "Overcoming Depression"by Shawn Montgomery I am a peaceful person but I have a lot to deal with. I'm stuck in the system and so many times I've given up and started over. The only thing I have is my health. I'm in really good physical condition. I live and breathe fitness 'cause its all I have. I'm sitting in solitary lock-up right now but I've been through so much that there really isn't any fear just depression.
I am so fed up with everything. I am fed up with myself. Sometimes I believe death is the only way out, but I keep finding things that get me by. And God and writing are the two ways I am "overcoming depression." It's inspirational to me to get things off my mind, 'cause I have no one to talk to. But I do believe in God and I have faith. And each day is a struggle for me because sometimes I wish I wouldn't wake up. But I tend to keep a smile on my face and hope for the best. I can make it even if it's on my own. I am a strong person. |
