I have decided on something. I am going to try to write every day I can if possible. I was opposed to the idea because I hate feeling like being forced to do this. Makes me feel like anything I write won’t be truthful to my own feelings and thoughts. But after seeing the positive sensation I feel after writing, I think I should try it anyway. When you see that something is helping you deal with a problem like depression, fear, and paranoia, why would you want to stop it? Unless the help is drugs. Don’t depend on getting high to fight depression.
On another matter, I think will discuss something very interesting happening tomorrow. There is a general strike in my country due to the price of gas. I live in a poor third world country. English is not the mother language even. The reason I write this blogs in English is due to the general perspective that what I am doing is weak and only crazy people do it. I have heard there is also a public disdain to talk about mental health matters in developed countries. But I can’t think they are worse than here.
Practically everyone in this country is barely scrapping. When everybody is in a bad situation, who are you to say that your problems are worst than mine. My problems are bad, really bad depending on how you see them. But I am sure others are suffering too. So, we must be strong I find a way to overcome this crisis. I just hope I can get out of poverty and I find peace of mind. Or vice versa, whatever happens first.
♫ Wouldn't you know
We been hurt, been down before
Nigga, when our pride was low
Lookin' at the world like, "Where do we go?"
Nigga, and we hate po-po
Wanna kill us dead in the street fo sho'
Nigga, I'm at the preacher's door
My knees gettin' weak, and my gun might blow
But we gon' be alright ♫
We been hurt, been down before

My knees gettin' weak, and my gun might blow
But we gon' be alright ♫
Alright - Kendrick Lamar
P.S. – Let’s hope that I survive tomorrows strike. Here, strikes can become very, very violent. I am not exaggerating. But not The Purge levels violence.
