My Journey from Darkness
Darkness swallowed me for many years of my life.
The darkness was heavy
to the point that I felt like I didn’t deserve to be here,
like it would make everyone’s life better if I were gone and there was no other way out of the pain I felt.
Living with these thoughts and feelings about myself drove me to drinking heavily and eventually to a suicide attempt in July of 2011.
To me I felt as though there was no return for me. The pain within me combined with the pain that I caused others had literally broke me and I thought I could never be fixed however I was wrong.
There is hope, healing and recovery. It is possible to come back from such darkness and I hope that if you are struggling as I once was that you are able to take the steps to find your healing.
Going from darkness in my soul and light in my eyes to light in my soul and darkness in my eyes was an adjustment that I never imagined for my life, yet I would never trade it back if I had the opportunity.
For me music has been a huge part of my healing process from almost the very beginning after my suicide attempt. This particular song has been one of the blessings that helps me climb back out of the hole each time I feel that I’m slipping in. I hope it brings you peace and reassurance as it has done for me.
Please do not give up on yourself. Reach out for help and always remember that no matter how dark that deep hole seems that light is right around the corner.
