3 - examseason and I fucked up the first one already. Studying isn´t going how I want it to. Losing motivation to continue my studies to be honest.
Hi!

I did not go to college till I was 24 and it was the HARDEST thing that I have EVER done. With that said, I messed up exams and some finals and had to drop a class a few times so my GPA did not tank.

I am saying this in so far as YOU WILL be awesome in life, I am 66 with life experience and I 100% believe in YOU!

There is sometimes a pit with the fruit, BUT in the long run throwing the pit away and enjoying the fruit is worth it.

Sending you lots of huge hugs, love and I am always around if you want to talk.

Walter

7 out of 10 would be fair for me. Not a harsh winter so far, doing alright. Walked a good amount of kilometers. Feeling fit.

Maybe 4/10. A part of me hopes it'll get better but realistically, I doubt it ever will

7/10. Found out that the many "characters" in my head are a coping mechanism. Nice to know I'm not insane. I guess you never really heal from childhood trauma. My expectations for my recovery progress was too hasty and I need more time. It's not bad, I just struggle with treating myself kindly. It's really hard to undo years of abuse from others and in turn myself.

0. Have felt alone, unseen, unheard, depressed, misunderstood, isolated and demotivated for too long. Living life without a social support system and therapy seems to be a miss for me at this point. I hate the saying "things will always get better or change" because until you've experienced a lifetime where things kept getting worse or didn't change despite myself trying to believe this, you dont have the perspective and it's not in your place to tell someone else that to try to make them feel better, cause it might not

4/10

Before the holidays, I had thought things were getting better and had some hope. Coming down now from that relative high. One upside is that the slide down gets easier every time. It's like I'm too tired and jaded for disappointment to engender much of an emotional response.

I was doing really damn good for about 3 months and my weak, dumbass self got drunk last night. I knew I would get sick and regret it and I'm mad that I chose to do it anyway. This also disrupts/negates my medication which genuinely help me. I'll do it again.

Between 4 or 5. Yesterday I had a really shitty situation happen to me and I'm still thinking about it, even if I try to distract myself. I feel like I was punched in the gut. Might try to do some small things around the house to alleviate the feelings.

2. I'm so angry at myself for not being able to control my eating. I way overate today and feel too full- which grosses me tf out because i'm squeamish and just don't like feeling stuffed.

i feel just really fucking confused. i'm both the happiest i've been in awhile because i'm obssesed with (some new distraction i found to cope), but i'm also going thru a suicidal episode after a long time and i feel dreadful.
i'm not even motivated to really kms or do anything about it, i just wish i wasn't here & in terrible pain

I would like to go out and play in traffic but I am unsure if it's because nothing is happening or because I am ready to go/leave/disappear/erase myself
