Thank you so very much for sharing this intense and emotional poem with me.  Mental problems, in one way or another, seem to touch us all these days.  The “battle” you describe in your poem comes vividly to life and has a frightening reality about it.  I could wish, from a purely poetic point of view, that you had used less rhyme and more imagery but, having said that, your poem speaks a powerful message and comes, I believe, straight from the heart.  I am happy to add it to the poems I am considering for Featured Poem of the Month for July.  Again, thank you for sharing your poem with me, Susan
