Saw the vampire

 Had my blood drawn the other day.  Dr wants to see what is causing my memory loss.   She does think that part of it is my depression, which I will agree with but...these headaches are constant and every single day.  Forgetting things that I should not forget is frightening.   She did run a test on me the last time I saw her and I am right on the border of mild cognitive memory loss.  That was not comforting.  I see her again next week and I truly hope we can figure out what is going on because this is becoming frightening.  

As for the meds...I'm finally past the jittery and nausea garbage.  Still can't eat much but that saves on groceries right?  I was driving to work today and was thinking "Why did I throw away almost 20 years of my life and not take the meds I knew worked for me?  Why did I give 20 years of my life to hating The Monster for what he did to me?  Why wasn't I strong enough to say 'fuck you asshole' and live my life?"  I can't keep thinking that way or it will drive me mad and it will keep The Monster front and center of my life.  He is his own trouble and I'm not going to own his abuse.  I have seen a photo of his current flame of the week and it solidified his abuse towards me.  She is what he told me I was.  I can't say she is unattractive.  She isn't unfortunate looking but she is heavy.  By heavy, she is heavier than I was when I was with him.  That just tells me and confirms that he got off on abusing me and me alone.  Does he abuse her?  Don't know and don't care.  That's her demon and cross to bear.   I just know, even though I'm still trying to convince myself which is a daily thing, that I am NOT heavy, I am NOT unattractive, I am NOT a bad person.  Will I ever date again?  Part of me hopes I do.  For now...I am on a path to find out who I am and become the person I was before The Monster destroyed me.  It will happen one day.  I know it will.

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.
