114th Entry - 15 January 2018, 5pm

I don't know if yesterday I spoke to casually about what, I suppose, is an attempt suicide. I never made the decision to take those pills easily. I am not doing so well at the moment. And, sometimes, I just need a break from my mind. My mind is filled with so many things. School, family, friends, my future, the things that still hover from the past. Additionally, I think once you have flirted around the idea of death so many times, you become desensitised and it seems less scary. Added to that is probably a fair amount adrenalin in that moment. I am one of the people in life who struggle with boundaries. I place no boundaries and can't manage to stay in line with others. I am insanely open my life. I have no problem telling people things from my past because none of them embarrass me. This is the first thing I was iffy in letting people know. And this spread through the family the fastest. For example, today, my Grandpa came up to visit me now that I'm out of the clinic and when was saying goodbye he looked at me and I could see he was crying. When you feel lonely you often loose perspective on the people who actually are there for you. My family are there for me but it never feels like enough. I feel like a chore. I know that aren't their attentions. There should be a balancing act in life; between life and work, love and sleep. My struggles with balance come into play when I can't keep my family happy while keeping myself happy. By talking to them I feel better, but it upsets them. By not talking, I suffer. I really did want my life to end. I still do, to a certain degree. I don't love my life, I don't like my life. In fact, I barely tolerate my life. And the problem with this is that I have to make my own happiness. Not through people but find it in myself. I know there is a whole 5 or so of you have seen this. So it's not a big deal. But I want to let the few of you know that if there is something wrong in your head or in your life, please talk to people. You will find help. Sorry for the cheesiness.
 
Much love

"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...
