The Window

2 months ago · 2 · Depression, +4


110

I've thought of this same window for months now. On my way to school, there is this big window. It's not even a special looking window. It has white curtains and there is always a faint light coming through. Something about this window never fails to draw my attention back to it. Every single morning I take a look at it. It has slowly become this symbol of hope for me. I like to imagine living in that apartment myself. Maybe not in that particular one. It just makes me a bit more happy at times. I like dreaming about waking up there every morning with a person I love, living the best kind of ordinary life. I have tiny bit of hope left that I have room to heal. I can become okay again. I can be happy and healthy, free from all of pain.

    I feel like I feel the same way sometimes. I live with my dad, younger sister, stepmom, and younger step brother. It gets really stressful sometimes, especially over summer break when I was home all the time. I don't really have friends, I only have my boyfriend and I can't just go there to get away from everything. I'm only 17 so I couldn't go get a job and even if I could I'm really bad about putting others before me all the time and I was worried about bothering someone. I like to think about what I want to do after high school, honestly I barely know what I want to do education wise but I'm in the process of thinking about it. But my mind set at the moment is getting a job, saving up and getting a car, saving some more, and possibly getting an apartment. Maybe with my sister. I really don't like living with people and having OCD and lacking social skills doesn't help anything. I hope you feel better.
