Content Warning:
This story is focused on depersonalization and depression and touches on attempted suicide and paranoia. Exercise care if these are triggers for you.
The other day, I posted something especially distressing on social media, but a friend noticed that it fell in line with a subculture, Empty Spaces, and mentioned it to me. I was unaware but on checking out an anthology and some stuff she shared with me, I saw myself extremely clearly reflected. Not all of it was 1:1. It's such a vast concept, I don't think any one person (regardless of how many people they are), can fully encompass it.
Anyway, I felt a necessity to write as I don't think I ever have in my life before and this is what came out. It was terribly painful. I hated writing it. But I think it's the most important thing I've ever written.
I hope it can make someone out there feel less alone as the Empty Spaces writings I've read have made me feel.
