Chemical Soup

I saw Constantine the other day, and something he said reminded me of a theory I had weeks before going into the hospital.


When I was a child I saw things. Things a child shouldn't have to see


Constantine was talking about demons and the like. I am thinking about demons too, but demons that are thoughts. Thoughts that are real and true, but that are so horrifying that they are normally shielded from the average human mind. Constantine tries to cut his life short from the sheer agony of facing the truth of what he sees; maybe he, with his apocalyptic vision, was never meant to live that long.

Maybe I, with my mutated mental chemistry, was never meant to live as long as I have.

Yes, the doctors and the research says that the depressive mind thinks distortions, but what if they aren't distortions, but deep, dark demon truths? Truths no person should be revealed to for too long?

Something to think about

I'm assuming keeping the blog helps keep things straight? I'm a bit paranoid of putting all my issues out in the open (or at least some of them). I'm thinking about doing it, as sometimes it does help to put it in words instead of keeping it inside the head.

I'm not sure if it keeps things straight...I mostly do it as a way to maybe help others going through depression or other mental disorders.

And the beauty of not using my real name is that I can be as honest as I'd like.
