I hate myself so fucking much right now.

I was a shitshow. Everything I've constructed since then has been in defence of my ever doing that again and in explaining it away. I hate myself for that. I still can't forgive myself. I wonder if I ever will be able to?

Perhaps it's a little off, but I'm appropriating it anyway.

I slept with a stranger.
The Patch Stop Bad Poetry


If only I had an enemy bigger than my apathy I could've won.
It does not do to dwell on dreams, and forget to live.
Must I be content with discontent...I cannot bite the day to the core.
To die would be an awfully big adventure
And how can I stand here with you, and not be moved by you? Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
Darkness can only be scattered by light, hatred can only be conquered by love.
Awareness is the enemy of sanity, for once you hear the screaming, it never stops.
Writers aren't exactly people...they're a whole bunch of people trying to be one person.

ED thoughts are pushing in again, and I'm letting them. Even though it might destroy my relationship.

I don't feel safe, and I'm angry and want to lash out in revenge...no matter how unhealthy I know that would be.

I read these articles online about sexual abuse/rape by females ... there is just this ball of pain inside me, it feels like my chest is caving in.
I feel so, so, so fucked up right now.

Several years ago I was in a treatment facility that was so bad, so abusive, that I cried myself to sleep every night and prayed that the police would come and rescue me and put me in jail if I wasn't stable enough to be safe on my own. Now, sometimes I become gripped with the fear that my prayer will be answered late in a way I don't want it to be.

I sometimes wish I could go back to the psych hospital because being independent is too tough and stressful.

I want to hurt, at least then I'd be feeling something rather than walking around like a zombie.

my house got attacked. i havent told anyone yet. i guess im just trying to move on. i dont want anyones sympathy, but im really shaken up. we thought the door would break, his words so harsh....im scared to trust people because they always seem to hurt me in some way. take him for example, it took me a long time to trust him, never thought he would do this, and then there he is. i still hear the pounding in my ears, see him outside the house. im scared. i need help

Holy hell that was the best night of my life.

And so self-destructive that I cannot do that again.
