I wake up every day and think about it. I want to be with my husband. I was scrolling through tiktok and ran across some bullshit tarot card reading and while to me that's all shenanigans, the fact that these people prey on individuals with lost loved ones drives me insane. After my husband ctb I went out of my way to get therapy, go back to Church, get my medicine straight. I stuff it down every day, but that one tiktok threw me over the edge and I hate it.
I just wanted my mom and dad back. I wanted my kid to be nice to me. I wanted my husband to pick me and stay. I just wanted him to fight his demons like I do, to quit hurting me.. I don't hold it against him, knowing he must have felt the way I do but I was his catalyst. It wrecks my soul every day. If I hadn't done this, or that, he'd at least still be here for his own kid. I'd take a thousand years of punishment to bring him back, to take his place.
Instead I became a shell of the person I thought I was, and now my mental health has cost me literally everything and everybody. My kid left me alone too, which I also don't hold against him, I'd probably leave me too if I went through what I put him through. I sit here in an empty house, looking at my dog knowing he's the only thing keeping me here. I wonder if I'll ever be brave enough to go through it. I wonder if it'll stop. I take responsibility for myself, I know what I did wrong, but… I can't help but think that I'm just going through the motions, but why waste the time and space to be miserable? I don't know. Who does?
I'll try again in the morning to fight through, but I am very tired and very… at peace knowing that I could make it stop if I wanted to. It's a contented feeling. I even spent some time at work browsing the lab closet to see if anything struck my fancy. It was like shopping for candy, felt weird but delightful. Cathartic.
Who knows what tomorrow might bring, but tonight I will take my anxiety medication, cry this out, and hope that whatever direction I walk will be the right one.
