The black hole

So when things go bad, wrong or I lose something I thought would be in my life forever and end up in what I call a black hole, it has two steps really.

The first
I pretend it doesn't really matter too much, I drink a lot, smoke a lot and basically let loose but a bit too much its definitely on the fence of being a little crazy but then i have never fallen into the trap of things are either black or white in my life its mostly grey.

The second
I retreat, I hide myself away regret mistakes I made in the first step from being a drunk mess 90% of the time. I shut down, I barely speak to anyone. I get bad thoughts that definitely interrupt my days and I find myself either full to the brim of emotion or emotionless and in all honesty I am not sure which one is worse.

The first step is very short lived in comparison to the second. About 2-3 weeks of crazy and then the worst is that i cannot put a time on the second. The last time I was in a black hole it was a few months. I have a feeling that this dark hole may last a bit longer. But of course talking about all that I feel in my head is not my strong point and even though these are words on a screen I still cannot bring myself to say too much on the matter.

It's always tough when you loose a partner, friends, respect from others and yourself, the place you called home and your health. When you loose all of these within a matter of a few months it takes a dramatic toll because your life changes dramatically and its very much unplanned and unwanted.

I guess at this point in time I have to take it day by day and more importantly hour by hour.

Guessing you want a back story huh ?!

Well I wish there was an interesting story that I could tell you, but it is just the same 'tragic' story that you hear on X factor or BGT. I lost a lot of people on my journey to become an adult one of them being my father. I lost friends both through death and due to, well I guess being caught in a web of despair and being a weird emo chick with eyeliner thicker than a chicken thigh, I mean I don't know the guidelines in the manual of how to cope with death when you're 15 but pretty sure I didn't follow any of them, everyone loves a rebel right?! School was tough, being poor didn't help kids can be cruel about what you do and don't have. Oh and being clever apparently is something to be mocked, I know lets enjoy that now when I'm the one with the degree. Even though yet I haven't achieved anything with it, yet, standard graduate crisis. An turbulent relationship with my mother then gift wrapped my teen years for me with many arguments, which did...

The world doesn't help anyone

This year has been a very tragic and eventful year and many things determined this year are going to change the world as us millennials know it. Brexit and all the terror attacks that have been committed by a small minority of extremists. However the issue has arisen that when an attack is committed by a white individual they have a mental health issues but any other race is just known as an attack. For someone with mental health I can understand that some with mental health conditions can lead to a small percentage of of people committing crimes against others because they have not received the right help. The media are very quick to judge and blame the individual and yes they should they did the crime but there should be a deeper look into the system itself. It is failing most of society because there are not enough people to work within the mental health system due to a lack of funding and there is still a detrimental ignorance towards mental health and this knowledge is needed to...
