This is a collection of poetry that spans across over a decade of mental illness and the struggles of coming to terms with depression, abuse, poor self esteem, and an addiction to self harm. This is by no means a way to glorify or romanticize mental illness, but rather a look into the mind of a survivor during some of the darkest periods of their life.

Trigger warning: Some poems contain content that may be sensitive to readers. Some examples are (but not limited to) sexual assault, self harm, panic attacks, and various forms of abuse. Please read at your discretion and remain safe.
