Did I really want to go through with it? But at the time, it felt like the only way out. And that's what the trolls don't seem to understand. Those who have never experienced depression couldn't hope to understand it, but the least they could do is be respectful in doing so.
Are those few retweets really worth making someone who's possibly at their lowest feel like there is only one way of escaping that pain? Today, for the first time in months, I found myself in an all-too-familiar position of not wanting to get out of bed; I wanted to remain wrapped in my duvet — curtains closed — and immerse myself in the world of Netflix.
One quick scroll of Twitter evoked memories of the past four years, a rollercoaster ride of seemingly "recovering" from the disease, only to fall right back into it. At the start of this year, I finally opened up to my mum about my depression and went to the doctors for treatment. The treatment itself didn't work, but the opening up and having conversations about it certainly did.
It was having those conversations that has led to a positive start to for me. Just this weekend, I quit my job in order to focus on making a career in music, and I couldn't think of a better way of starting my return to hip-hop journalism than a piece dedicated to hip-hop and depression and how the music saved my life. I was indescribably close to suicide. Joe Budden is a cult hero to suicidal millennials, but perhaps best known to mainstream audiences for mids hit "Pump It Up", various allegations, and pioneering reality television.
His transparency in the majority of his discography is brutally honest, sometimes even too honest, but if the solution to the rising suicide epidemic is to talk about it openly, the Mood Muzik legend is leading the way. Joe's Mood Muzik 4. And, in a sense, that perfectly encapsulated how I felt. Joe's personal demons were very different to mine, but that's not important because his music offered a one-size-fits-all style solution.
It might not have been enough to make everything sunshine and rainbows, but the idea that somebody else felt similar to how I did allowed me some kind of peace. Elsewhere on the mixtape, records such as "1, Faces", "Inseparable", "Follow My Lead" and "Black Cloud" all played a part in me coping with my depression.
As I started feeling brighter, lyrics like "when tomorrow comes, I know it's only due to yesterday" from "Stuck In The Moment" helped me to appreciate that time because it made me stronger. And, to this day, "Downfall" remains very poignant.
