I am... confused, disjointed from my emotions, urgy and concerned. Frustrated.

i am not... bound my my negative emotions, going to do anything with them but try to feel better. I am not the idiot I feel like I am right now.

i feel... guilty for feeling like this, like I have no reason to feel this way because things are relatively calm. Like I'm never going to get out of the downward spirals because the good times seem rarer than usual. Stupid for not being able to name the reasons for the emotional responses.

i want... to understand the emotions so I know how to deal with them. To go out and be anywhere but here. To not feel like shit for no obvious reason, and to be able to explain to SD why I'm upset, rather than getting frustrated and saying 'I don't know!'

i need... to be more gentle with myself for not being able to name the emotions, or understand the reasons. I need to calm down, and be accepting of the fact I haven't achieved anything on my to do list, and that that's ok. I need to understand, not just say, that it's more important to be mentally stable than achieving jobs. I need others to mean it when they say it, too.

i have... BUS, notebooks and pens to write in, books to read, music to listen to. I have distractions and relaxation tools. I have my camera.

i love... SD, photography, art, music.

i hate... myself[/b]

I haven't done this in a bit - although I'm not in a negative headspace I figured I'd contribute anyway :)

<b>i am...</b>

Good, content.

<b>i am not...</b>

Unhappy or hungry, which often leads to being in a bad headspace.

<b>i feel...</b>

Good, slightly nostalgic, a bit apprehensive about the future.

<b>i want...</b>

To get a stressful situation over with.

<b>i need...</b>

Human contact, a hug.

<b>i have...</b>

A kittar who is healing quite well from his surgery, parents and people who are willing to be honest with me, beer, TMNetwork, a good sandwich

<b>i love...</b>

My family, beer, TMNetwork, feeling good/content, good food, the ability to have fun.

<b>i hate...</b>

Feeling bad, feeling like I want to SI, stress, school (CISCO you ruin me D:), the economy since even though I now have something marketable I fear I won't be able to get a job with it, the stressful situation I'm in currently, not winning at bingo :)
there is, in the end, the letting go.

That's not true. It might have made achieving them more challenging, but it hasn't taken away your dreams.
