You. are. like. a. child.

Youre. gonna. flip. your. lid. again.

Don't. you. understand.

Your. mind. is. not. your. friend.

Regarding his struggle with depression and writer’s block, Matt Berninger details how the inspiration for Your Mind is Not Your Friend came quite literally from the first two pages of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein:

When I feel stuck, I’ll often grab a book off the shelf just to get some words in my head, and the first two pages of Frankenstein ended up triggering the song ‘Your Mind Is Not Your Friend. The book starts off with the narrator on a voyage near the Arctic Circle, and that image of being adrift helped me to write about feeling disconnected and lost and lacking in purpose. Once I started confronting that strange, blurry panic of not having ideas, everything began to crack open a bit.

Danielle Haim about Now I’m In It:

now i’m in it is about going through it. a depression. not leaving the house type of shit. for my sisters and i, there have been times in our lives where we have felt like we are stuck in a dark hole. the track is chaotic- like my mind when i’m spiraling. fast-talking to myself- words jumbled up. heartbeat racing. these times are hard to forget and even harder to work through. after being constantly on the go the past couple years, i didn’t wanna stop and deal with some shit. also every day my sisters and i feel so fucking lucky that we get to do this for a living! it seemed like stopping and dealing with these emotions would be letting everyone down. but every time I’ve been depressed- it takes me accepting that I need help, to start to get out of it. it’s gotten a little easier as i have gotten older to recognize the symptoms and remind myself that when this happens, i need to seek help. (shout out to my therapist!!) anyway, we all know it’s important to talk about this stuff. this one poured out of us. take care of yourself. be nice to yourself. and thank the ones around you that help u everyday. hope this helps anyone who is in it right now

Your imagination is in an awful place Don't believe in manifestation Your heart'll break

Don't you understand? Your mind is not your friend again It takes you by the hand And leaves you nowhere

You feel it in your nerves It's choking out the sun You try in vain to be persuaded That it's nothing don't you understand? Your mind is not your friend again It takes you by the hand And leaves you nowhere you are like a child You're gonna flip your lid again Don't you understand? Your mind is not your friend

You inherited a fortune From your mother's side Your sister didn't get it at all She survived

Tranquilize the oceans between the poles You're crawling under rocks and Climbing into holes

Don't you understand? Your mind is not your friend again It takes you by the hand And leaves you nowhere you are like a child You're gonna flip your lid again Don't you understand? Your mind is not your friend Your mind is not your friend Your mind is not your friend Your mind is not your friend Your mind is not your friend

Don't you understand? Your mind is not your friend again It takes you by the hand And leaves you nowhere you are like a child You're gonna flip your lid again Don't you understand? Your mind is not your friend

One manifestation is listening to Radio Paradise and saying "Ooh! This is a perfect Marc Spector song!"

if i think about the hunger games in peeta's perspective i WILL start sobbing

#imagine you're a boy who's going to die. you're in love with the girl you've been watching from afar. you know your fate. #you just want to help her‚ but then there's the announcement and she's here in front of you‚ kissing you‚ risking her life for you and you #think‚ i could live and i could love. you think she loves you when she hands you the berries‚ when she puts them in her mouth. #then you both survive and you go back home and nothing is real anymore. you have nothing. no family. no friends. no love. just an empty #house. a drunk for a neighbor. the love of your life walking into somebody else's arms. you think‚ i survived the games. i could survive #this. and you also think‚ i should've bit down on those berries‚ should've felt the juice burst before i died. #and then the third quarter quell announcement rings in your ears and you think‚ she will live and i will die as i should have in the first #place. the girl you love kisses you on the beach and somewhere you heart stirs and your mind revolts and you savor every touch she has ever #given to you‚ in front of the cameras and off. because you are a tribute and you are always being watched and snow's presence looms and #you think‚ i know she cares. but you get taken. you get drugged. you get tortured‚ your mind altered. the girl is a mutt‚ a murderer. she's #everything you despise‚ your mind stirs. your heart revolts. you gain more awareness but cannot distinguish reality from fiction and you #have never known katniss' love. the war ends. you heal. you come home. you plant primrose for her. years down the line‚ you grow in love #more than you thought possible. but some days‚ you cannot tell fiction from reality so you ask the love of your life‚ you love me. #real or not real? and she says‚ real‚ and kisses you. #and you sigh and kiss her back and revel in this. a home. a life. a love. #lit #the hunger games #everlark #otp: real or not real? #katniss everdeen #peeta mellark #text #tais toi lys #thgpost

(genius) In an interview on The Zane Lowe Show, Matt shares he started reading Frankenstein by Mary Shelley and was inspired by certain words in the first two pages that described the phase of depression and writer’s block he was in:

…the words were ‘tranquilize’, ‘the ocean’, and about being in the icy tundra. That’s kind of what it felt like. That was my way into writing about my inability to write."
