You Are Enough
The voices in my head tell me I’m not enough. Repeatedly. Incessantly.
You are not enough.
You are not enough.
You are not enough.
What have I done to deserve this?
What can I do to make the voices stop?
They won’t. Stop.
One time I asked the voices, “Why are you doing this to me?”
“I hate you.” The voice said.
Wow, I thought. I’m definitely not going to listen to these voices anymore.
That didn’t stop them from occurring though.
Everyday I struggle with the voices. My best days are days when I don’t hear from them much.
My worst days are days when the voices attack me incessantly.
When they occur, I just do my best to ignore them.
They happen a lot at work, which can make it hard. But more recently, I have been better at ignoring them.
Oh, it’s you again.
You’ve come to pester me.
No matter how many times you tell me to kill myself, I will keep going.
I have a beautiful life, with a beautiful family. And wonderful friends.
