Things I've Done That Haven't Helped

I have brushed my teeth

I have made my bed

Changed my clothes

Took my meds

Drank water

And showered

 

I have cut

I have burned

Over and under eaten

Skipped my meds

Stared at my phone

And cut people out

 

Nothing has helped

And I'm still sad

 

I've made new friend's

And I've isolated

I've dressed up

And I've dressed down

I paid too much and too little attention

And I'm still stuck digging my own grave trying to get out.

I don't know what the photo is it wouldn't load at all, sorry if it doesn't fit the poem. This is about things I have done that haven't helped. TW! mentions of SH and possibly ED.
