What's Bothering You?

I'm so bummed out. A childhood "family friend" of mine never invites me to any event of his or his family but he always invites all of my brothers. Today he is actually getting married yet I wasn't even so much as notified about it. Of course all of my brothers and mother were though. I'm honestly feeling broken by this. It's another clear indication that nobody wants anything to do with me. Every day I just feel more and more worthless, it makes my heart sink.

I’m sorry, Dim. I’m here if you’d like to talk or at the very least, vent. 💙

The internet here is dog****.
I hate that. I need to do some sleuthing because my computer mouse lags all the time to. Gets to be a pain.
I just find the busyness, demands, and commercialism of holidays stressful and distracting.
I get that. I like this time of the year and Christmas, but anymore I feel like people have lost themselves in what Christmas really was about. I never got anything wild for Xmas. Some baked cookies and a toy or whatever and I have fond memories of it. And now everyone tries to make it into some race to keep up with the Joneses

I hope you feel better! Maybe try to take it easy tonight and have a nice hot bath or something.
 
You aren’t worthless at all, Dim. I’m so sorry. It’s awful being left out, no one deserves to be treated this way. It’s honestly his loss, though. I know we haven’t interacted much, but you’ve always been nothing but lovely every time I’ve seen you around.

You deserve to only have people in your life who value you and know your worth. If your family “friend” isn’t one of them, then screw him. He doesn’t deserve your time or your friendship.
 
had a half day today because the boss let us go early for our christmas break and it was so nice seeing a sunny day after a while (i have a basement bedroom and tend to sleep in on weekends, so sometimes i don’t see much daylight in winter)

i realized i probably wouldn’t hate my job as much if i didn’t spend every day waking up and leaving when it’s dark out, i still hate being stuck in an office all day, but i was definitely doing better at focusing on my tasks during summer when there was more daylight and i didn’t feel like it was the evening when i get out

i’m really considering trying to discuss with my dad this weekend (or whenever i get over this cold/stop feeling like trash) if i can quit and just focus on my art even though i’m not feeling optimistic about his answer at all

this job doesn’t give me insurance, so there really isn’t anything tying me to this place other than my paycheque (not a lot) being a set amount each month while being an artist has really inconsistent pay

my mom is always complaining about how i rarely help in the kitchen, i feel bad because i’d love to, but i just always feel like i don’t have the time/motivation to do my own things

my parents care so much more about what our relatives think, but i wish they would try to listen to how we feel about our own lives

i honestly think i’m jealous of all my girl cousins who aren’t forced to get jobs, whenever my mom shows photos of family events we couldn’t go to i feel like we’re missing out on so much
 
It's the first day of our Christmas holiday. My girlfriend forgot to turn her alarm off. It woke us both at 6:45 AM. 🥲
 
today is the one year anniversary for an unfortunately pretty traumatic event. i’m going to call my little brother and hide in my room
 
I feel bad for not visiting with my cousin very much while he’s here but when I hear lots of people talking and music playing loudly I’m just like “wow that sounds like the exact opposite of where I want to be”
 
This stupid cough does not want to go away. My voice has been raspy these past 3 days. Before anyone asks I did take cough medication but it ain't helping as much.
 
asked my mom to mail a package for me since she was already going out. told her i wanted it first class signed for. instead, she let them send it special delivery, and made me pay the whole £16 fee (when it should've been around £10) despite the difference being her fault. if the post office weren't so far away, i'd have just done it myself 😔
 
I think I have a cold 😭 Wednesday and Thursday I was very nauseous and my stomach was very upset. Yesterday and today I’ve had a runny-ish nose, nasal and chest congestion, a sore throat, and the lymph node under my ear is swollen. Also, when I move my mouth at all, it feels like the very back of my ear hurts. I’m drinking a cup of Theraflu right now, so hopefully it goes away. I hate feeling sick 😭
 
It's almost Christmas and of course my body is still not well. Today I am in pain and I don't think it will go away soon enough due to what it is. I think I will be taking medicine for a few days... So nervous and stressed. I don't even want to do anything now except lie in bed.
 
It was difficult to get myself to wrap presents today. Christmas has always been hard because of my situation (not being able to buy gifts with my own money), but it is even harder with three nieces that like a lot of stuff that I’m boycotting right now. One of the books I picked out for one of my nieces got delayed and lost so my mom had to cancel that order. I’m very bummed about that :/. Hard to be in the Christmas spirit because of what’s going on too and still not hearing from my best friend, and the while thing that got me upset in the first place.
