I found it worth reading.
Making the NDIS and Public Trustees work for you is a challenge, but stick it out and I hope you come up a winner.

I’m locked inside a prison
With no crime that is my own
I’ve done the things that SHOULD breakthrough
And feeling more alone
It seems my prisons everywhere I go
I need no lock and key
The chains are tightly wrapped around
The shadow that was me
What is there to freedom
When the chains still bind my mind
What is there to reason
When non near can be found
People everywhere I go
My pain I dare no show
How did I find this place
Where lost and lonely go
Though I’d run far from this place
There’s nowhere I can see
My pain will only follow
To this prison inside me

That knocked my socks off that poem.
I rarely use Sane and I am computer or what I use, phone, semi litterate,
I fumble in the dark.
Lost all my left frontal lobe 20 years ago, was a big farmer then, now a small farmer.
I do what I do, sit in the car in the Woolworth’s car park for 4 hours.
MADNESS
madness climbs it’s
ugly ladder,
sadness crawls it,
depression grabs it,
do I want its
ravages of rage.
We sing from the same side of the car park

Hi @Former-Member
You've posted in Writing as Form of Therapy so I'm not sure if your post indicates your current frame of mind or if it is a creative expression of feelings/thoughts that are familiar to you from the past? I might just send you an email to connect with you that way and check that you're ok.
Take care

Walking in the dark
mind set
a teenager
Sitting at the pool
mind set
a woman
millions of thoughts
to end my life
many years
will they ever
go away
