TW: suicide, hospitalization
I’ve written dozens of false starts, intro paragraphs and reintroductions of my writing but today, finally, this is all I can muster.
I’ve been horribly depressed and struggling with a lot of mental and physical health challenges. Am I capable of rising above this noise? Yes. But also, I got advised to seek hospitalization by an assessment specialist at a behavioral health clinic. Can I go? Probably not. Does it feel scary to be told a medical professional is concerned enough about my health to suggest 24/7 care? Yeah, totally.
Here’s a drawing journal I did today. Vulnerable doesn’t even come close to how I feel posting it, but I have to start again somewhere.
Best, Wit
