It's interesting

 To see how people are full on gung ho in support of you when you are in a great place, have wonderful things happening, showing vacation photos but the moment darkness descends...those people are gone.  They ghost you and you are left alone.  When you need support the most, it is not there.  Truthfully, in that darkness, a person may not be looking for advice or even words.  They just need someone's presence and compassion.  Nothing more.   In that darkness, they don't see light.  They see nothing but pain and wanting it to end. 


I have no friends who understand.  I'm just their token "fucked up" friend.   I'm preached at, told how to do things,  just take things one day at a time.   How do they propose I do that when every damned day I resent waking up?  They don't get it.  They have no compassion.  Just let it go they say.   Sure.  Let it go. If it was that easy,  I would have done that years ago and not be the joke I am today.   I have absolutely no one and I'm not sure if that makes me worse or relieved.

Too much...

 There are days I enjoy living my life.  There are days I thoroughly hate it.  Yesterday, while grocery shopping, I almost had a breakdown.  Standing there in the aisle, I had to fight, with everything in me, to not start crying.   Too much has been hitting me this month and I think I'm at the end of my rope.   Beginning of the month, D's new wife sent me a text telling me to lose his number, email and address because I already had my chance with him. I laughed at the absurdity of everything she said in that text as it sounded like something a teenaged girl would write. I haven't wanted that man in almost 20 years, so, she is either highly jealous of his past and any woman he used to be interested in or is extremely insecure with herself and her relationship.  Regardless of her mental state, I told her I was just catching up on life with him, but I will respect her request and not talk to him again.  I've been told she has been married 4...

2004 - 2023

  Twenty years ago, I was a mess. I was belittled and demeaned to the point where I hated myself and would have done anything to hurt those who hurt me. From family to friends to men. I lashed out, created more drama than was necessary and didn't care who I hurt. As long as they were hurt before they hurt me, I justified my words and actions. If someone DID hurt me? God help them. I held nothing back. I'm not proud of who I was. I am ashamed of who I was. I did things I should have never done, and I cannot take any of it back no matter how desperately I wish I could. Today, in 2023, I am someone completely different than who that woman was in 2004. I'm not the unmedicated mentally ill person anymore. I'm getting healthy not only mentally but physically. I'm more successful than I was told I would ever be. I'm not the loser bitch that I was told I was. I'm a good person with an "I have gone through hell" history. I am a woman who struggles with ea...

People who say they love you...

Shouldn't be the very people who hurt you the most.  For me, the worst damage comes from those who said they loved me and they were the people who destroyed me.  And people wonder why I don't believe in love.
