here’s the 2006 poem “dreams” that inspired this poem:
forgotten dreams remembered
in a bout of depression
I wanted to be much more than this
an overwhelmed mom of two
trying her best but still failing
an chaotic mess who doesn’t
know who she is
underneath the burdens
and expectations placed on her
Life on the BPD 
When I experience a similar feeling, I try and remember that we only use a small part of our brains, but then that frustrates me even more because I don’t how to activate a part that might be helpful so I go buy a beer.
