A/N: I wrote this while I was in a psychiatric clinic for depression and anxiety January 24th - February 1st, 2013 . I had to deal with so many things and put myself into a new environment and it was frightening.

Who am I?

Why am I here?

Where do I go?

What happened?

You feel confused and confined

You question yourself and feel like you're loosing your mind

You sit and wait, Hoping for the wait to end

While the nurses watch you, waiting for wounds to Tend

They tell you "things get better", while you question why they should

What you wish happened, doesn't, while you sit and stew wishing it would

The meds numb the pain, but it can't take it away

Each doubt and fear lingers as your mind trys to keep them at bay

Then the meds kick in and you start to see clear

Suddenly going back to before becomes your greatest fear

 Therapy helps you learn to cope

Inner strength builds, giving you some true hope

You grow a bond with people who are struggling for the same goal

A vision of healthy happiness, and to never feel empty, but feel whole

You may walk out better, you may not

But it's your choice, make a better one and you'll be in the right spot.

"It's hard to make changes, but as long as you try and believe that things will get better, then they will." - Han_Man
