Very anxious

Lonely

Pathetic

My cat came and curled up beside me and fell asleep with his head on me.

I'm worried that once I've officially thrown this away that there really will be nothing left. This is all I have to fill the emptiness, and it's almost gone, too.

I Know It's Over-The Smiths Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head And as I climb into an empty bed Oh well. Enough said. I know it's over - still I cling I don't know where else I can go Oh ... Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head See, the sea wants to take me The knife ...

What I'...

I just clicked on the topic for the literary reference (from a brilliantly bookish BUSer), but I regret to say that I have little advice in regards to the actual question. This is something that I struggle with, too (which has a lot to do with why I am reluctant to build relationships). I'll be read...

I got an A+ on my Engl. Lit. term paper!!!!

(a month ago, I felt so crappy I didn't think I would even write the paper or make it through the term).

I also struggle with finding positive things to say about myself, and I u...

I'm worried that I'm going to do poorly on my exams...and I'm also worried that, even if I do well, I'm still going to feel like a failure.
I'm worried too many opportunities to make things better and to get what I want have already passed me by.
