Struggle
Mental illness is overwhelming. Learning disabilities. I have a hard time spelling. Went to jail and now I’m a felon trying to overcome depression. I also have ADHD have a hard time paying attention with a touch of bipolar just got worse as I get older turned into a schizophrenic when I manic I get paranoid and start to panic I regret, not listening to my parents. They was always right I hallucinates scared to sleep by myself at night. My moods are always changing I’m in denial so from my mistakes others, I’m blaming takes a big person to be able to self reflect but I’ve been a fighter I’m from the projects my Mother is a Portuguese and walks around sockless. My father was in Vietnam and healed Agent orange that shit was toxic. If I win this contest I’ma put the money in my pocket because I’m broke my disabilities. Keep me from working dyslexia when I’m reading words look foreign never paid attention in school because it was boring no motivation so days I don’t want to wake up in the morning one way or another I’m gonna never give up I’ll be successful im passive, subtle and humble and antisocial I live in a bubble
