109th Entry - 27 December 2017, 5pm

I had a really nice Christmas. I got to spend it with my family. Everyone was in a good mood and things were just chilled. I am just worried because things aren't great with me at the moment. I can just tell something is off. I emailed Prof and he said it might be me just being hormonal from PMS. But I really think it is something bigger at play. I wonder if I will get into Fairmont next year. They don't accept Matrics and I left the normal school system. I really want to just do a year of actual learning where I can focus. It would be so nice to be in school with Bella. The only downside of going there would mean that I was going to school with a bunch of juniors. I think I'm going to email Prof again and just update him because I know something isn't right. Tomorrow we're going on a bus tour of Stellenbosch wine farms. All of us are going and all of Mom's family. There are 20 of us I think. I'm excited but kinda worried because the adults get kinda annoying when they are drunk. But it will be fine. I watched a movie yesterday called "Lady Bird". It's about this girl in high school who makes some bad choices. One thing I can relate to is struggling to communicate with your Mom. I love my Mom and Dad more than anything. But sometimes I just feel like they don't understand me. I feel like no one really gets what is happening inside my head. I really feel like I don't fit in in this world. I know that the girls love me. I know Mom and Dad love me. But I feel like they don't really like me. They tolerate me. I annoy people and they treat me accordingly. It's difficult. I haven't found my spot in life yet. But I will. Another thing that is difficult is that the girls really don't treat me nicely. Rose is just dead rude and Bella is only nice to me some of the time, and then it's because her and Rose aren't talking. Anyhoo, stay safe, guys.

"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...
