Hibernation


hibernate: three

The bed beckons me
"Hide here, it's safe"
Dreamless sleep awaits
"Hide here, it's safe"
But if I hide from depression,
it will never go away.
If I hide from depression,
I lose precious days.
Yet I am bound to my bed
By the bonds of depression.
Even though I know it's a vicious cycle.
"Sleep your life away, it's safe."

It's that time of year, isn't it? I'm definitely getting a light box this time around! I hope you're well.

It's funny, bed seems to be a recurring theme with a lot of people who live with mental health issues. For me, I feel so guilty if I stay in bed, even if the only alternative is to sit in my pyjamas ON my bed reading! I have to get up at 6am or else I feel like I've failed for the day!

It would be nice to just hibernate for the winter though wouldn't it :)

I feel guilty too. I get up, get dressed but then often go back to bed.
