It's a "Let's Overanalyze Everything!" kind of week... month... months.

-
Somedays I feel like I can take on the world. Like I am so much more powerful and amazing then people know. On those days I refuse to apologize for being me. I take up space and I can be heard.

I don't shy away but stand up and am proud of who I am, what I've accomplished and how far I've come.

But then there are other days.

And on those days I just want to disappear. I feel like I do everything wrong. That I've done everything wrong. That I am wrong.

I become unable to process normal interactions and my mind turns every single one into something that needs to be looked at over and over and over again with a microscope to see where I went wrong, because goddamnit I know I did something wrong!

I broke something, something is broken, I can feel it in the sidelong glances. Did I say the wrong thing? Did I miss the social cues? Did I bother them? Are they annoyed?

Did I cross some invisible line and now I've shattered any chance I have of being your friend?

I'm so broken I can't even touch other people without shattering the bridge on my way to reach them.

Why am I so broken?

My Thoughts Continue to Taunt Me

I can not cry at work. I can not cry at work. I can not cry at work. No matter how far my mental capacity has plummeted in the past, moving back into my parent's house was a horrendous decision and has caused so much mental stress. I can not remember the last time I was this bad. Before I returned, I convinced myself that the negative memories were all just in my head. That I was just over exaggerating the situations and the way they went down.  Being back in their environment has shown me I was not making shit up. I was not blowing things out of proportion.   My self-esteem is at an all time love. I want to eat everything and nothing. My default answer to everything negative is: "I should just die." I want to cut. I want to drink and smoke and dissipate into the universe.  Words keep running over and over in my head. I am not okay and I want to die. I am not okay and I want to die. I am not okay and I want

My Thoughts are Keeping me Restless

I can't sleep tonight. It's kind of strange. I haven't had a night like this in a while. I've tried drinking it off but alcohol just kind of goes through me like water. As someone who used to drink to sleep, I can't decide if my now high tolerance is a gift or a curse. My thoughts are scattered to the winds this early morning. I've watched about four animated movies, as well as a Disney movie. I would recommend Pete's Dragon if you want a cute, kinda action-y movie or The Little Prince if you want to cry. but like, the good kind of cry. I notice I go back to the same music over and over again. I have certain songs that stick with me like gum to my shoes and others that always seem to sneak back up on me like money in your coat pocket. It's not that I fear change or hate it. In fact, I greet change with, undoubtedly shaky, but welcome arms. However, the constants in my life keep me from going insane.  Well, sometimes. Tonight I am a bit in
