About HardAnxiety:
This is my online journal, a tool I can use to write about my progress through recovery. I have been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder Type 2:Ultra-Radian Cycling and Panic Disorder with Agoraphobia and also Codependencey.
Below is the workbook I am curently using, it's a great workbook, and I
recommend getting the accompanying book, Facing Codependence, from the same
authors.
Want to cheer me up? You can buy me something off of my My Amazon.com Wish List. What a shameless plug, eh?
Wandering in a Dream of Emptiness
This is a poem I wrote when I was around the age of 18 when I was very inspired, the words for the poem just came to me from almost nowhere, but I believe it is a true expression of an early beginning to my road to recovery.
'Wandering in a Dream of Emptiness'
Here and now is my past for real
Or a crazed dream that my shadow has killed
Another's intuition begs the knight to kneel
For the bed of emptiness nearly is filled.
A path is laid clear, so short and true
For the one who follows, a land to rule.
When the shadow behind, new wisdom is found
The path so clear, now begins to drown
Deep in the haze, a struggle thus is born
The two intwined once together now are torn
Scholar and student, blinded in the light
Shedding their eyes with hopes to find
With the intermission of thought, instinct now rules
Ceasing to wonder which is the fool
A choice not made perhaps the wisest choice
Between two paths now they open their eyes
A new world is found, midst a triangle of demise.
