I cut again tonight. I was trying to cut deeper but I couldn't. I know it's not the case but it feels like it would help. Maybe it's attention seeking. I want help but I can't think of any way in which anyone could help me right now. So what would be the point in asking? I feel like I want people to know about the extension. I want support or sympathy or something but I know I couldn't deal with it, it would feel like pity. But I have hopes of girly hugs and kind words and nice gestures. But i'm not used to that. I've never had that. I shouldn't expect that.
and tomorrow will come
When today is done...

:star: even if I want to go to bed I wait up till midnight when you get off work (or I turn my text alert on to an alarm ringtone so it will wake me up) so that we can have a "wind down the day conversation" you know, how was work, how was your day, and always the I love you.
:star: I realized from when we fight that I JUST can't sleep without our wind down conversation. I really don't feel right if I don't tell you goodnight.
:star: You are the first person I love. I never even believed in love. I thought it was stupid. All my ex's I would never tell them I loved them even if they said it.

If I don't get short-listed for this, it's quite possible that I'll burst into tears at work....

I'm afraid while you're in rehab fixing your life I'll be left behind.

I feel pathetic for not being able to tell you that the reason I'm not going to graduate is because I'm too depressed to be able to focus on anything.

So now you just think I'm lazy.


But I don't think not being able to get out of bed because you wish you hadn't woken up is the same as not wanting to get up because the bed is warm.


I am so ashamed of myself for so many different reasons.

I hope you never quit smoking again, you got so cruel and mean and out of control.

I feel like a fake, a fraud because even though I make it to the goals I set for myself I still never feel like I've done good enough to make you proud.

I like that I've finally been able to SI 'well'. I know this is twisted.

I say I have no friends, and it feels true. But there are people who care about me. I feel selfish for not being well for them.

when I see pictures of everyone with their mates I just get really jealous. Ryan's not around. We don't even have pictures of us together.

this isn't a secret, more something i can't talk about irl.
*ed*

i really want to lose weight. i was triggered today as someone said someone else was tiny and i want that person to be me. i know many people say it, but other ppl are small and i need to be smaller and i'm not and i hate that.
:cry:
i have always been known for being petite. it is part of my identity. i don't know how i would handle putting on weight.
i wish i didn't feel hunger, i don't want to have to eat.
i want to be tiny and shock people with bones.
i know i shouldn't feel this way which makes me feel guilty. but the truth is, i do.

I'm too depressed and too stressed out to focus on my schoolwork- its the last quarter of my junior year, the absolute most crucial time for me...I've given up and I'm settling for community college, because they have no standards. One of my brothers went to a good state university, the other is going to a prestigious military university, I, as always, will cointinue to be not nearly as good, not nearly as smart, not nearly as worth it. What else is new?

I'm marrying my soulmate. She just happens to be female.

I want to push him, I want to push him until he snaps...just to prove that he doesn't really love me that much. But, I don't because I don't want to risk losing him either.
