Really good (apart from a cold at the moment). I’ve had such an awesome weekend, I’m exhausted but still on a slight high from the fun of it. Haven’t had the time to think ‘bad thoughts’ which is great. How are you?
11.45, Sunday night. They wouldn’t be allowed over because of parents and/or restricted licenses. Perils of youth, and not living particularly close to any friends.
My brother and I don’t really talk anyway, so I wouldn’t know what to say to him. We never have serious conversations if we have any conversation at all.
My mum’s gone to work, and my dad’s asleep.
I’d like to climb out my window and just run, maybe to a friends house, or just keep running until I get tired, but it’s raining and freezing outside.
I’m not even sure. I just suddenly feel really hopeless and overwhelmed with sadness. My eyes are actually really sore from crying so much, but I have no idea what I’m crying about.
…
I just left my room with the prozac in my pocket, thinking I’d just go and lay it out infront of my brother and blurt out that I want to overdose on these, but he told me to go away pretty much as soon as I walked into his room =P
I’m free! (as in from Uni). It feels pretty weird not having any work to do. I’ve made lots of plans for the holidays though, to keep me busy and happy. As for telling my parents, well I haven’t told them…but I’m thinking that the holidays will give me a chance to de-stress and maybe I won’t get down as much, if I’m not any better by the end of it I’ll let them know. How are you?
In moments like this, when I’m thinking a little clearer, I think about telling my parents, which I probably should have done when I started feeling depressed again.
But I don’t know what to say to them, and am afraid that they’ll just be incredibly disappointed.
I don’t know, various from one institute to another, from one country to another, how the define age groups.
Is it an idea to cut (no pun intended) the problem in several pieces, so you have a bit of an overview and take that to your doctor. See what he/she can say about it? What you local options are.
The dr I saw just gave me prozac…which I often think about ODing on, but I’ve read about it and it sounds extremely painful.
How do I go about seeing a therapist? Last time I was in therapy it was like specifically a place for kids and adolescents, I’m 18 now so I don’t think I can go there…
Yeah it’s ok, I’m right handed but I have a tattoo on my left wrist- so I don’t cut there (can’t remember if I’ve told you that). I doubt my left hand is actually strong enough to make cuts deep enough to do much damage.
I was in a very different frame of mind so I can’t completely comprehend why I did it myself. When I got home from work I was just incredibly bored and studying for philosophy didn’t help because it’s all about like questioning existence and all that stuff which made me wander ‘what’s the point in all this?’- as in life. Later on I read an email from my friend asking me to ‘hold on’ until the holidays (which is a nicer way of saying please don’t kill yourself before then), which got me depressed, although it was probably supposed to show me that he cares. Also on Monday he said to me ‘you owe me’ which in his email he explained further: because he went through all the trouble to come see me and rode his motorbike in the rain- which for some reason made me angry and so I text him saying ‘the only reason you came over on Monday was to sell drugs and the only reason you came over on Friday was to get drugs, you just try to pass it all off as caring’ and so I was just really angry and upset the rest of the night (at kind of nothing I guess) and took it out on myself…
