I wish someone could see past my facade and realise how not OK I am. But tbh, even if they did, it wouldn't get any better, I'd either be ignored, hospitalised, or have my means to an end taken off me. I am drowning more and more all the time. I've starting taking over the counter meds - anything with a drowsy side effect so I don't have to deal with my brain. I'm drinking a couple shots of vodka most nights, and this is all on top of all my medication - lithium, trazodone, buspirone, diazepam - and sometimes I take the odd quetiapine if it gets that bad. I've weaning myself off the lithium now though, it's done nothing to help. I can't work full time anymore, so the days I'm not working, I barely go out, let alone see anyone. I live by myself and nobody really checks in with me very often either. The days I do work, I feel like a complete fake as I have to put my face on and be all 'professional' - it's killing me. All that dominates my mind now is making sure I leave letters of who to tell in the event of my death, what my wishes are (probably should be see a solicitor so as to not let my dad get his way), I'm leaving more diary entries that before so people will have more of an idea of why I did what I did. I'm trying to figure a day/plan of when to do it. I need to not ruin my sister's or my nieces 16th next month, so idk.. Currently I don't see me being alive past July.
