Exhaustion, dejection, stress.... Sometimes, things happen in our life that take away the joy of living, that cause chaos in our minds or that cut us off from the outside world. "Dark thoughts" is the title of my work and I think we all know what is meant by that. A topic that is a taboo subject for many: mental health. I give you various insights into my mind in the hope that you will not feel alone and that together we will find the way back to life: a life full of joy, hope, and love.
