Surviving the Specter

Thank you, mistaken. There are things we often say that we can’t take back. Things we do and things we don’t do that make forgiveness tough because we’ve neglected the ones we care for. Those that are going through MUCH, MUCH more than I am. I feel I cause hurt out of selfishness. I pray for the cycle of Specter to end. Don’t know when it will. My girlfriend has been a warrior and has stuck by me regardless of all the imperfect things I’ve done. Praying for recovery and reconciliation. It’s hard when we both are struggling with our own demons. She is good, dear people.
Thank you for your supportive thoughts, my friend.

Just remember…Depression lies. It doesn’t mean it isn’t real to us, it just means we have to fight harder to discern lies of our specters from our actual emotions.

Thank you, Niki. Yes, the lies seem so real. Especially when you seem to hurt the ones around you. Thank you so much for your reassuring words, my friend.
