70th Entry - 5 February 2017, 8pm

"I don't even know why I bother trying. Everyday I get up and do my best and it is never good enough. Nothing ever is. I'm not a good enough friend or sister or  daughter or granddaughter or student or patient or human. I fail at pretty much everything I try. I don't want to keep trying. I want out. Is there no escape clause or cancellation document? No get out of jail free card? Having me gone would hurt so few. Most people wouldn't even notice if I died. I can think of maximum 6 people who would be genuinely sad that I was gone. the rest would be sad for my family. No one knows my mind. This frightful tangle of self-hatred and hopeful ideals that will never end the war that was so long ago waged. I'm a good example of a  flaw in evolution. the higher being that made me was having a bad day. My life is a mess that will never be fixed. Years of a rusted soul that will never shine. All that's left is a broken girl and a dozen failed attempts when trying to live a life she wasn't made for. No amount of love, patience, dedication, therapy or pills can fix the broken shards of this broken girl that is who I now am. Who I've always been. My life is just a ridiculous cycle of hope, pain and black pits of despair. And, no matter which way the pendulum swings, at the end of the day it's still just going to be left with broken loved ones and a more broken heart."

"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...

“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...
