Excellent quatrains NaPoWriMo entry Precious Gems : Stressure by dovemarie

Lots of times I find myself under what I call "stressure," A combination of distress and pressure. No days or weeks of pleasure, And I feel under the weather. My head feels the pressure; My mind, the distress. Some days I can hardly get up and dress Suicidal thoughts, onward they press. I look at my meds- Whites, yellows and reds. I feel a strong surge of desire for someone to inquire How I got this deep into the mire. Oppression, repression, depression, suppression, My life is hanging in suspension. One bright day I'll get rid of this "stressure," Annihilation of distress and pressure. Author Notes Some days I feel all of these words that are listed in the last stanza. I always manage to get over them, even though it takes time. I think I've created another new word too! (Stressure) Thanks to emspics for artwork
