What's Bothering You?

Give me his handle I'll beat him up. 🥊

I don't think I want to publicly expose them here but if you feel particularly violent I can send it on Discord? 😂
But thank you, the thought means a lot <3

(also I've already replied to them by now. I've been advised to block them if it doesn't help, which I will. For those of you that enjoy drama, feel free to judge it, it's in the spoiler below.)
Hey <name>! I still don't feel safe or comfortable visiting someone I don't know very well. For instance, I have no clue what your typical day looks like, what you enjoy doing, or what you would want to do together (meaning, I don't know what your intentions are, and that makes me uncomfortable). And vice versa, you don't know much about me either.

I don't enjoy having to say this, but I've already turned you down twice, so asking again makes me feel like my boundaries are being ignored. I don't feel like we have a very deep friendship yet, so the more I get really nice messages and invitations, the less comfortable I feel about our interactions.

I'm sure you mean well, but I’m asking you to please take a step back with these kinds of messages. I'd really like to be able to continue interacting with you in a normal way, and I hope you feel the same, since we'll probably see each other regularly. I'm also okay with keeping in touch occasionally, sharing fun things, or complaining about the weather, but can we please keep it casual?

In any case, I hope physio will help! Or that they have spare bodies in the back. Whatever works!
 
It seems my sleeping troubles are becoming a regular occurrence again. I thought the worst of this was in 2020 but no ! ... not very epic !! 🍋
who has two thumbs and can’t sleep again … this guy !!! (i feel like a fool) (when can i find peace?)
 
loool I bought a Switch game preowned because I couldn't find it new at any store and online it seemed every place was backordered. The box art and the game cartridge look fine, but it's some generic basketball game. Someone must've peeled the stickers off and swapped them.

This is not the biggest thing bothering me right now. There's so many bad things happening in my life currently and I just wanted to play this game and get away from it all for like an hour maybe. But I guess not. Thanks for being a dirty thief whoever you are.
 
Got an MRI scan in less than an hour and despite never suffering from claustrophobia before, I am panicking about being in the scanner. It never used to bother me. I think it was the last time that has triggered this as I was told it would be 45 minutes, it was 90 minutes. If I knew how long it was actually going to be it would be different. 😥
EDIT: I can hardly move, but it's done! 😀

This is minor. I went to McDonalds to get three happy meals for my fiancé, father, and myself. I was excited to get the hello kitty x yugioh toys. I was hoping hard for chococat (my favorite)..... we got three of the same one. Tuxedosam. I love Tuxedosam but three of him?!? Ah well. Maybe next time :")

posting here when i cant sleep is becoming my new hobby. well that and making cyber art...
my boyfriend keeps asking me to sign up for cbt therapy, but i keep saying no. its just that ive been on the waiting list for specialist ptsd therapy for a while and really want to hold out for that - i know i really need therapy but i don't want to commit to something im not sure will help. though it is true that ive been wanting to open up about how im feeling so badly for a while now. i essentially say nothing about my mental health, even to my partner, and it goes in stark contrast to how open i used to be. the best you can get out of me these days is vague references to my nightmares... i just feel so unable to be honest about whats going on. my world has changed a lot since this time last year (and even just over the summer). im in different circumstances with (amazing!!) new friends and i just fear they would look at me differently if they knew i actually kind of am defined by what happened to me. i think they'll find out in due course anyways for a variety of reasons, but i want to pretend im fine as long as i can. perhaps my facade is causing this latest bout of insomnia. perhaps it really is my fault. hmm.
 
I saw one of my former high school classmates at my job today. She came in as a customer to order food. I’m usually in the kitchen handing out orders. I glanced down at her name tag because she looked awfully familiar. She had the same name, which isn’t even that common of a name to begin with.

She used to tease me for my teeth before I got them fixed, and I couldn’t help but notice that hers weren’t that great now. It’s funny how the tables have turned. She didn’t recognize me, anyway.
 
Woke up today both hot and cold with muscle cramps in my calves.
In my dream I was with the co workers I closed with last night. We were looking for my two missing tickets so I could get those two heart balloons from the shop. Finally found them and tried for some reason to use my employee id to claim them and it didn’t work of course. By the time I realized it had to be accepted it was too late. Even my subconscious is worried about my coloring entry not getting accepted in time.
 
It's hard to believe September is swinging around so fast. Quite honestly, I had really hit the end of the line last year. One day the sun came through the blinds and I felt ill from it. I realized I felt not much of a desire to live. Many things had crashed down on me. (Specifically September 14th-19th).

I planed the seeds this year to make things better. Rome wasn't built in a day, but it's never to late to try and make new beginnings. If anyone is going through something similar, there is my hopeful sentence of advice.

I can see for the first time things are looking upwards. Although this period of the year now makes me think heavily. (In an introspective way). All we can do is our best, and I'm certainly now trying to do mine.

Also I need my teacher to email me back. He's late again on something important and it's stressing me out.
