I don’t want to put on a brave face

Sometimes I don't want to put on a brave face: (2025 update: this is an early piece that I've not read in years. It's still resonant! What can I say. Some things never change. One of those things is BEING HUMAN. In general I have a deep and abiding faith that I will get better. Sometimes, however, I'm so damn sick I just want to die. NOW. This is not about being suicidal. I'm simply not suicidal. It's about wanting the suffering to end. I probably have to repeat for the sake of clarity again, that this is not a psychiatric issue. I am profoundly physically disabled and the withdrawals make me profoundly ill at times. It goes up and down so I'm not always equally ill.
