52nd Entry - 28 April 2016, 6pm

“I don’t know what to do. I’m incredibly miserable. I’m sad about Max. So sad that it leaves me feeling empty and alone. I am broken. And it’s pathetic and stupid that I’m heart broken. But I am. I miss him with every cell of my being almost every moment of the day. I want to see him again and I know it’s not going to happen. As much as I hope differently, I’ll never hear from him again. It’s really difficult feeling so much. It makes me irritable and snappish. I just want my calm zen back. When you feel safe in the fact that you can handle what you’re thrown, life is easier. At the moment I’m not sure what else I can handle. School is very stressful and there is so much work. I also can’t get a handle on the people and I just want them to be my friends. I’m sad and I’m lonely. And, it feels like with every action I’m crying out for help but nobody sees. I’m drowning in my life, surrounded by people, and nobody is pulling me out. Maybe it’s the universe’s way of teaching me to swim. But right now I’m not swimming. Maybe what I need is some time to learn and grow. I saw Richard today and it was the first truly awful session. He was acting strangely and I felt out of place. He said I’m doing well, all things considered. He said the ups and the downs are normal and I must just be okay with myself and the fact that this is bipolar.”

80th Entry - 29 April 2017, 9pm

"So. Wow. You've missed a lot. John and I are dating as of the 18th. It's wonderful and gentle and sweet and all kinds of lovely. He's more fantastic than before. I mean, he was always great but things are kinda perfect now. Which scares me. I feel like it's easier to get hurt now. And not just me. He can be hurt by me too. It's equally great and terrifying. It's just really difficult when he leaves. It makes me sad and mopey and generally unpleasant-feeling. I think the trouble is that it all seems so normal that things seem like we've been dating forever and it has been a week. Which is scary. I feel like I'm less mature and ready than everybody thinks. I am doubting myself a lot and it's difficult. How do you deal with your own views of yourself? I don't see myself as a particularly bad person but I just don't see whatever it is that John, Nick and Richard see. I think I need to speak to the girls about making fun of me. It really br...

20th Entry - 27 April 2014

“So medication muddle again. I took Dopaquel last night and another 50g this morning at 11:00. It sucks. I was as high as a kite. It’s so confusing. You just feel like you’re floating. Mom wants me to go back on Serdep. Dad does too. But I don’t want to. It never goes well. I don’t feel in control. I have no say over what my body does. Rose said to me a few nights ago that she used to know me inside and out and now she has no idea who I am. That she doesn’t even recognise me. I’m not really surprised because you could see it. But the really scary thing is that I didn’t even care. I don’t feel anything. Nothing. People can make me mad, can hurt me but I feel nothing. I feel hollow. My taste, my love for people and for music. It’s just gone. I’s like I’m an empty shell. Nothing in here. I don’t understand what’s happened to me. I’m not this person. I know I’m not. I am a loving person. I’m passionate. And now it’s all just gone. What do I do? I’m hurting everyone I love. I can see mysel...

"Mom is at her work conference. So it's just Dad, Rose, Bella and I, And Steve. It's weird not having Mom at home. I'm feeling vulnerable and slightly irritable. Which is not cool. I spent this afternoon watching a bit of TV with Bella and then I spent the evening with Dad. I don't want him to be lonely without Mom. I don't know what is up with me at the moment. I feel lethargic and like I have no motivation. It's weird. And uncomfortable. I don't know what I'm doing. I feel useless and bored and frustrated. I want to do something else but I don't really know what to do. I get energy sometimes but it never lasts. Sometimes I feel like I can do work this year. But then I don't feel like I can do anything. I feel like these entries are really repetitive. My life feels repetitive too. Like everyday is the same thing with the same problems. It's difficult with Nick right now because I feel like we are in two different paces in our relations...
