What's Bothering You?

My mate died last night. Fire. He was in a wheelchair. He had no chance.

Third death of someone dear to me in six weeks. 😔
 
1. I want to catapult my sinuses in to the sun
2. They're finally constructing the units closest to our window in the lot next to our place. The building looks like it will literally be no more than 25 feet from our window. Goodbye, view. And goodbye ever opening the blinds again, I have the worst anxiety about feeling like I'm being watched. I really miss all the trees and the birds that used to be in that huge lot. Soooooooooo depressing

I'm so sorry for your loss. 😢

Anxiety as always is taking its toll on me alongside the fact more hot weather is on the way next week... yay.
 
i hate summer reading 😭 why do schools do this? what am i going to do, forget how to read over our break? i hate the book im reading, it’s so boring and i don’t understand it. i hate books in general.
Isn't Summer reading optional? If not, I am seriously beginning to question the school system...
 
woken up at 3am, don't know what woke me up but omg my tooth hurts so much. it didn't start hurting until I got this filling put in. now I'm terrified that I might have to get a root canal, and i took ibuprofen but it still hurts a lot. so I'm having a hard time going back to sleep.

idk how it works elsewhere but at my old high school summer reading was reserved for the honors classes. I took honors eng my sophomore and junior year so I had to do summer reading both years. I wouldn't doubt that there are regular English classes that make people do summer reading tho, school is stupid.
 
I had a pretty gruesome and notably bloody part in my dream, which I'm not gonna describe for the sake of anyone having to imagine it. But let's just say that it happened right near the end before I woke up, so now I can't stop thinking about it. I don't understand why I dreamed about it in the first place, because it had no correlation to what I was dreaming about before it happened. So yeah, that's a great start to my morning...
 
@Shawna (sorry i can’t quote you, i messed it up somehow when trying to)

no it’s not, well i don’t go to public school so that’s probably why they’re forcing us. whenever i’ve had summer reading it’s always been required to do. the only time i didn’t have summer reading was last year, that was probably bc of covid and they were trying to figure out other stuff. plus im in honors english but even my brother, who goes to the same school as me, has to do reading and he’s not in it.

every time i decide to take responsibility for myself and plan something out to a freakin T, something ALWAYS comes up and RUINS IT! am i cursed or something? why do i even bother anymore?
 
my nose will not stop running :,)
also, my dad accidentally called me it yesterday and it made me upset for a while. i know he supports me but it kinda hurts that the first person who said something like that to me was my dad.
 
why are the people who proudly wear "let's go brandon" hats/shirts also the most repulsive lol

edit: to clarify I'm not trying to be rude or generalize but I've never seen/met a pleasant person who supported this kinda stuff.

I spoke with my psychologist yesterday. I really really really need friends irl huh? Online isn’t cutting it so much. But I really really never get opportunity to go out.

Waiting two weeks to see her again. She holds the best conversations with me. I don’t know how I can explain ny intellectual approach to anyone, I don’t feel I have conversations where I share IDEAS with people. What does the art we consume mean to us? What do pieces of that art represent and what did we learn from it? If we made art what would its theme be and what would we do? What are our stories in life and what are we really learning? Bouncing ideas and philosophy off one another. I don’t have it in my life after that one guy cut me out and I thought he got it (which was a farce, and he was awful to me in the end, but it feels like I lost part of myself then). I give but not receive it.

I tried to lead by example with my closer friends but I can’t deal anymore. I don’t feel anyone picked up what I was putting down and I was pretty open about feeling it was missing. Took a break from my main server.

And anyone I “grew up with” they‘re all gone except for one guy I honestly never even hear from anymore. Nobody from even four years ago is still around in my life so I always have to recount and explain and I know people won’t be as invested and we don’t have that mutual bond from time or going through certain hardship together. I have trauma over things nobody was there for, hell, this “friend” I keep missing and mentioning my other friends knew, but none of them realise how it hits me. Nobody knows what to do with me even when they try to give advice, when I just want vindication that some things suck I always get “have you tried this or that” like nobody can even see how hard I’ve tried. That feels awful. I know I made mistakes but I want off this ride, this lack of positive affirmation and finding what I want in life makes me not want to do anything. When I do something “good” it’s just meaningful to other people instead and I feel lonely doing the things I actually care about.

Saying this on a public forum is a lot but I wonder if I should even be in a relationship. But since that “friend” gave me a taste of that intellectual conversation and I used to be attracted and feel passionate toward him (absolutely before he revealed his age/how he really was, now it’s like that person never actually existed, another imaginary friend) I feel unsatisfied knowing I’m missing something so important to me, even though my partner very strongly feels for me. Some people say they get sad when their crush doesn‘t feel the same and things y’know, but for me it’s just been the opposite way in my relationships where they liked me disproportionately more. I never truly developed and understood my feelings before this “friend” and that turned out to be a mess.

Monkeypox has officially landed in my county.😑 A small rural county with nothing going on.

Be careful everyone.
 
I need to sleep, for real. It’s a little late, but at least I am relaxed.

The washer still isn’t fixed. I don’t know what’s wrong with it or why it’s taking so long to get fixed.
 
woke up at 4am to a bad toothache yet again 🙃
update on this, so I went back to the dentist today bc I was feeling something stuck in my teeth that would not come out. apparently it's an extra part of the filling, it's one of the teeth I had done about a week ago. I think that's what's been causing my pain.

so now I have to get poked again so they can go in and fix it 🙃🙃🙃🙃

edit: i didn't have to get poked thank goodness, and they fixed it. hopefully the pain stops now.

I hate how my brother criticizes me for what and how much I eat. My Docter literally told me that all of my life I have been in the healthy weight so unless I gain an extra 35 pounds some how...... I am a perfectly healthy person. Just let me eat my Marshmallows 😭😭😭
(he always makes me feel so sad and self conscious. I miss how we used to be so close, now all he does it criticize everything about me and I cry all the time because of it. He KNOWS 100% that I feel like im fatter yet everyone in my life and doctor says I am fine but he makes me sad)
 
so I'm feeling conflicted abt my friendship w the person I met about a month ago. I really like him and I've already expressed that but now I'm second guessing myself bc he doesn't ever message me first or just message me out of the blue. I get that he's busy but I think abt him a lot and I get the impression that he doesn't think about me much.

idk I definitely want to stay friends but I want to be in a relationship w someone who's gonna put the same amount of effort in. maybe I should talk to him idk. maybe there's something about him I'm not aware of.
