Back in the Depression Express
Its been a while since the last time I wrote something here.
Many things have changed since my last post in 2016. I got married, I got a
wonderful boy, my own apartment and even though I got a decent life path.
I have done stuff like coming back to swimming, being the best in my category
in Berlin and even in all Germany, and even having a decent job.
But things have been more difficult than they look like on
the surface. All that struggle was linked to a perfectly hidden high functional
depression that I have been carrying since I came here. The result is that I
have been trying to stupidly “protect” my family from worries by carrying a
high debt on my shoulders. To add to the cake, things in my relationships have not
been going well lately due to all the things in my head.
Unfortunately, I realized my own condition quite late in the game, my life becomes a mess as a pebble rolling from the top of a snowy mountain. I lost my job, I lost my health, I struggle
with my marriage, I lost my main support in life (my father), and I feel that I have no idea what to do
with my life.
Now, I am facing a challenge that I cannot encounter directly
and it is difficult to scheme a plan. I know that there has to be a solution
somewhere, but the fact that I had to exteriorise my worries to my partner just
makes thing more fucked up. I don’t know how to honestly feel about that. I feel
that I finally lost the last support I have to move up. Now I was torn between
survival and suicide mode every single minute I leave my mind blank. Luckily,
I still keep my rationalism intact and I know that everything will be temporal
and that it is more important to be there for my little son.
Still, that does not remove the fact that I feel like shit,
and that I lost the trust of the only person I could had the possibility to
lean on when I needed to rest.
I will use this blog back to vent out.
Let's see will bring tomorrow.
