Making the NDIS and Public Trustees work for you is a challenge, but stick it out and I hope you come up a winner.

Re: Writing As A Form Of Therapy

I’m locked inside a prison 

With no crime that is my own

I’ve done the things that SHOULD breakthrough 

And feeling more alone

It seems my prisons everywhere I go

I need no lock and key

The chains are tightly wrapped around 

The shadow that was me

What is there to freedom

When the chains still bind my mind

What is there to reason

When non near can be found

People everywhere I go

My pain I dare no show

How did I find this place

Where lost and lonely go

Though I’d run far from this place

There’s nowhere I can see

My pain will only follow

To this prison inside me

Re: Writing As A Form Of Therapy

  That knocked my socks off that poem.

I rarely use Sane and I am computer or what I use, phone, semi litterate, 

I fumble in the dark.

 Lost all my left frontal lobe 20 years ago, was a big farmer then, now a small farmer.

   I do what I do, sit in the car in the Woolworth’s car park for 4 hours.

      MADNESS  

  madness climbs it’s 

  ugly ladder,

  sadness crawls it,

  depression grabs it,

  do I want its

  ravages of rage.

We sing from the same side of the car park

No more nights

No more pain

Re: Writing As A Form Of Therapy

Hi @Former-Member 


You've posted in Writing as  Form of Therapy so I'm not sure if your post indicates your current frame of mind or if it is a creative expression of feelings/thoughts that are familiar to you from the past? I might just send you an email to connect with you that way and check that you're ok.

Take care

Sitting at the pool

millions of thoughts

to end my life

many years

 

will they ever 

go away
