I have a song that describes my experiences with depression perfectly I think. Unsurprisingly it's Lou Reed - Perfect Day. Cause what's better than describing "me sad" than a song about heroin addiction.
I'll explain.

This thread is going to be a bummer, but there will be a light at the end. I need to get this out of my head. It's why I added a trigger warning.
I am, in a way, an addict of depression. At least that's how I consider it.

(TW: Mental Health, depression) I have spent the past couple days thinking about this, and I keep getting back to my deepest fear: falling back into the pit.
My greatest fear is not the fall, but the comfort that the pit provides. It numbs every emotion.

In a way, it's an escape from earth, from life. If I don't get out of bed, if I shield myself from emotion, what the hell can the world throw at me? Nothing. Seriously, nothing. Many have tried and failed to get me out of that pit numerous times.

(TW: Mental health, alcoholism, depression) That's because it is comfortable there.
Like Renton escaping through using heroin in Trainspotting, I'm escaping through completely destroying myself with alcohol and self-hatred.

(TW: Mental health, depression) My greatest fear isn't so much falling into that pit, it's going down into the pit and *liking it* to the point where I don't want to leave.
It's a warm blanket that is draped all over me, then proceeds to destroy me piece by piece.

It feasts upon my soul, on my body, on my social life, and I let it happen. It has happened before. That's why Perfect Day resonates so much.
I'm in a better place now. I did however look into the abyss and liked it. And that terrifies me.

This is not a signal for anyone to be concerned about me by the way, I'm in a better place now. It's just a latent anxiety that I have every now and then, and I wanted to put it into words. Thank you for reading, I love each and everyone of you
