World Mental Health Day 2023

Depression

I have been told

I suffer from depression

mental health

they say,

emotional

unstable

well

that`s not me, I`m sure

just being a mother

can get you down

mental stress

more like it

exhaustion

memory loss

need

a little attention

when times are hard

a helping hand counts

mental friction

loss of confidence

need a new start

love and hugs

see

I've now got it sussed

a little help

goes such a long way

mental care

a kind gesture

relaxation

chilling time

so

we`re working together
