Why do people always promise me things that they know they might not be able to keep And then get upset when I get sad It's not fair I can only do so much to make my emotions convenient for others to handle Make them tolerable Take myself away from situations where my emotions will get the better of me I'm not a perfect person I'm a mentally ill adult combatting an entire life's worth of cptsd with very limited therapy sessions, an SSRI, an antidepressant, and the little bit of distraction I can get I physically cannot hold every negative emotion back And if my fucking therapist would email me like she told me she will, MAYBE I'll have some extra help But no Because I'm forgettable Even to those who are SUPPOSED to pay attention to my mental health
