But I promise I'll try to fight as hard as I can. I will wrestle my demons until my last dying breath. But please just understand that sometimes I grow weary. I am tired all the time, even before I get out of bed.

I can hear the voices roaring inside my head, thoughts screaming to be let out. I can hear bullets and explosions as my army tries to fight off the enemy and defend what little of me I have left.
