What does Psalms 6:3 mean?

The psalmist is drowning in despair, calling out to God with raw honesty about how unbearable things have become. That "how long?" isn't just a question; it's the cry of someone at their breaking point, wondering when relief will finally come. This is permission to bring your deepest pain and impatience to God without pretending everything is fine, and to ask him directly when you're wondering if he's still there or still listening.
