Local Man Ruins Everything//The Wonder Years

This is a song about how a place and an idea that had once made me happy no longer had that power. In fact, I needed to face the fact that being here was having the exact opposite effect on my psyche. It helped me realize a lot, though. I thought that I had kind of beaten my issues, but when you struggle with depression or anxiety or anything else, you never really win. You always carry it with you and the point, I learned, isn’t to win. The point is to keep fighting. It turned out that “I’m not sad anymore” wasn’t a victory speech. It was a battle cry. 

-Dan ‘Soupy’ Campbell

Omg perfect ^ I think I need to also face the facts that the places and people I think make me happy really have the opposite effect on me as well.
