Awfully tired, very down.

*sighs* I'm going to get up, shower, drag myself through the pouring rain to uni, & get me some coffee. & then i'll think about going to class.

Tired and disillusioned.


I haven't eaten since lunch...I should probably eat something.

Need to get away from computers and print-outs.

Exhausted, stressed, hurt.

I need to deal with exhausted first, so I'm off back to bed shortly. Worried - I'll get out of bed in the morning and get myself going and actually get some work done. Hurt- will take some time. Right now, going back to bed and getting some sleep and a cuddle will help.

Like I might explode. Worried. Frighteningly near the edge.

Eat properly. Do some work. Read my book. NOT spend all day online. Breathe. Make tea. Get to bed at a reasonable hour.

Destroyed. Emotionally drained.


I'll take a shower and try to relax then settle in for an evening of linear algebra. I might also make a list of things to talk about in therapy tomorrow.

Exhausted.

Go to bed.

Yeah, it's obvious, but half the battle seems to be working out obvious stuff. Making what should be unconcious and natural to most people concious so I can make sure I do it.

Lonely, at uni, very stressed, paranoid, upset about a fail mark.

I'm going to go to the gym. & then try to eat something small but healthy. I'm going to realise that the whole world is NOT staring at me. & I'm going to email my special needs person to try to work out how i'm going to possibly pass this semester.

I feel absolute shit, and totally down. I feel like a failure, and fat :x

I'm going to go for a long distance run, which will make me feel better anyway and help with my weight.

I'm also going to realise that not getting a job isn't the end of the world, and apply to some more outdoor centres.

I feel weak and pathetic and needy and still a little bit SU

I am going to forget about school for the moment and concentrate on making myself happy- especially because tomorrow is friday and I have practically no classes!

paralyzed in overwhelm.

turn off the computer right now, make a short list to finish by tomorrow, and pretend the rest of everything just doesn't exist.... at least, I'll try....

frustrated with what's happening

going to bed so I'm not so tired, but you see, when I'm tired, I don't have to deal with what I'm frustrated about, but I'm not functional when I'm this tired...grrr.

tired.
a tad paranoid that the shadows are coming back.
pained in the eyes.
stupid
unworthy
stressed
retaining a strand of hope.

finish my english essay, go to bed, stop worrying. stop listening to people worrying for me, like my mom.
