let's keep this one 18+ just cuz it talks about some more intense topics, and i'd rather have developed brains ingesting this sort of content. - this is more of a reflection than my normal posts would be, but i've been thinking about this one thing for a few weeks ever since it came up in a conversation. one coworker said that 'we model our relationships based on the treatment we received in child... » Continue Reading
panic was the first thing on my mind. it had been so long since i saw you, but you looked the exact same as i remembered. i'm sure you were long-gone, and hopefully you didn't see me trip over myself running to the bathroom. it's stupid of me to be sitting here crying and writing on a public page, even if it is a good coping mechanism. i can't let those feelings resurface. » Continue Reading
there's less than a week until my late sister's birthday now. it's getting harder to concentrate, which sucks as i have midterms and papers everywhere before the winter break. oh well. i always find a way to manage. it'll be tough though, seeing as i'm a little bit in need of supports at the moment. it's not like i'm wishing to find money on the hood of my car or anything (although finding somethi... » Continue Reading
sometimes i wonder what you think of me now i wonder if you hate me if you twist the story. at the same time i wonder if you still think the same things as before i wonder if you miss me. - for my own sake, it's better not to know » Continue Reading
yet another update since i need a space to talk and be okay. whew! today was quite long, and it was sooooo busy at work and sooooo busy at home! my poor roommate is sick, so i am taking care of the cleaning for the day. a lot happened at work already, and i'm quite sore, but i'd rather see her rest so she can get healthy. i'll just order myself some food so i don't have to worry about cooking. i g... » Continue Reading
i do a lot more journaling than i used to, i think it helps me compile my thoughts and reflect upon more. even if it's just to talk about my day, like this one will be, it's nice to feel seen and listened to. i drank too much last night, so i skipped my classes for the day. i don't think i missed out on too much, which is good. i spent the day catching up instead, and now i have some time for myse... » Continue Reading
i used to want many things not material but fulfillment i had ambitions plans for my future how i wanted to live where i would see myself in a few years a fantasy life i had built for myself now all i want is to feel okay. - the effects of internal turmoil » Continue Reading
there's too much going on right now and i need an outlet. this morning my car died, and i had to spend my money to pay for an uber to my unpaid practicum. i only had $50 left this morning until the start of next month. i come back from a stressful day to try boosting my car to find that the emblem for my vehicle was stolen. the car was able to start fine, but it needs to be in the overnight parka... » Continue Reading
alright, so i finished my shift for my first practicum, and here's how it went: perfectly! the environment was so welcoming and positive, and i enjoyed being surrounded by other women with similar mindsets and goals as myself. there were times when it was quiet, but i was able to do homework during those times and really pace myself so that i never felt burnt out. overall, it was sooooo good to be... » Continue Reading
i’m starting my practicum for university today, and i’m sooooo nervous. even though i got the placement i wanted, i’m scared that i’m going to mess it up somehow. this semester has been extremely busy so far, and i’ve added on to my plate by joining a choir, having a full course load, and selling crochet items on the side. a girl needs some rest. and some good social time. i think i might periodic... » Continue Reading
i haven't felt unstable in a while. i was coping fine, making money and getting good grades, feeling happier. this definitely threw me for a loop. on one hand, it sounds lovely. it sounds like you are growing in ways that i couldn't help you realize, ways that professional help could. and in that sense, i'm happy for you and your growth. but on the other hand, i wish i was worth that healing. i ... » Continue Reading
it's not quite the feeling of being lonely, but the feeling of being worth so little, or the loss of trust and security in the words of others. it's a horrid feeling. sometimes it's okay. other times it creeps up. » Continue Reading
