A friend once said,
I have anti-anxiety meds
That I can take on demand,
Up to four times a day.
If I’m alone, I sometimes
Count down the minutes
Until my next dose.
But if I’m with a friend,
I don’t think about anxiety,
And I need no meds.
Community as therapy,
As healing.
Isolation is, literally,
Torture.
