    Sorry I've not been replying to stuff. Everything's just been a lot lately. I'm kinda ill, plus the weather has been unbearable, so I've been feeling extra extra overwhelmed. Right now the only thing on my mind is to survive till the next day hoping it can be better than the last. My mind feels half melted, half burnt to a crisp. I just don't think my mental state is good for any talking right now, I dont want to say something dumb or stupid and then regret it. You could say I'm pretty feral right now lol

    Really struggling with the physical affects of constantly drinking alcohol. I just feel so groggy all the time and It’s really starting to affect my sleep. Sometimes I just wake up randomly and can’t get bac to sleep. That never used to happen to me. Even if I had slept all day I’d never get disturbed sleep

They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    mental health team are constantly failing me tbh, social worker shared her kinda immediate concerns about me and no one even addressed it so I ended up in a&e. I'm tired of complaining so I wont but I'm tired of being failed.

    Sometimes do you ever feel that your struggles have been going on so long that they will just never get better. I will never make friends , I will never be able to understand when someone says a joke , I will always take offence at anything anyone says … I will just forever be a freak who can’t fit into society and at this point I don’t know how much longer I can keep holding onto a society that I don’t understand or don’t fit into.

    I feel this so so much. But everyone keeps saying 'it will get better' so surely it must be true, right? I guess we just have to hope. Sending hugs <3

    I dont want to sound like an arsehole or ungrateful but I hate it sometimes when people help me when I dont need it. My parents especially my mum does this all the time automatically. I don't feel like I need to be independant. Why won't I let myself be helped. Like today I was filling a form for the scheme Im applying to for work and I struggled with the spelling of something so I gave my laptop to my mum and she corrected it for me by tpying onto the form which I have just sent off. I know I shoulden't worry about this but it felt like the work wasnt me eventhough I filled out all of the form and I asked my mum to read over it. Im just being silly and stupid right now fml

    The news of his passing hit hard because I knew what it felt like to be in that headspace.

    Mum told me the only reason she got our puppy was to make me feel better and now she regrets buying him - as if he's a fucking object - he's a living breathing animal not something you just throw away once your done with itznzw1gimddcb.jpg

    There was a spider in my schoolbag after break today. And it was a big spider. I got really scared. I don't mind small spiders but big ones are scary.

    Tired , tired of it all
    Sometimes all you need is one person to believe in you , for you to begin to believe in yourself.
