I feel so alone and annoying right now. I just feel like a burden to everyone around me.

You ever feel so lonely in a room full of people?

I’m always so fucking tired.

You’re not clingy. You’re not too much. Someone has time for you. Someone wants you to cling to them.

I long for the day I get to wake up beside you. Roll over and wrap my arms around you. Pull you in close, kiss your cheek, and whisper in your ear - “Good morning gorgeous, how’d you sleep?” Snuggle until finally you tell me you’re hungry. We’d get up and I’d grab your hand and take you to the kitchen. We’d laugh and kiss, while we cook breakfast together. Take it back to bed and just snuggle and waste the day away. Relaxing with however many animals need to share the bed with us, talking about life and enjoying each other’s company.

I long for the day I find you ❤️

you aren't lost, you're learning who you are. you're still here & growing & changing. stagnation is a feeling, not a state of being. don't let it drag you to the ground.

Nothing feels more empowering than watching yourself stand up, dust off, and start doing the things that used to make you happy after you fell. Fell so far into a deep, dark hole that you never thought you’d crawl out of.

I’m a little over a month out of a 2 year relationship with a woman I was head over heels in love with. A woman I thought I would marry and had dreamed of a future with. The last 4 months of our relationship were not the best.. and we probably should’ve broken up sooner, but I held on tight and tried to keep it going. But I had to come to terms with the fact that neither of us were happy anymore. It was more harmful than anything at that point.

Between feeling like my heart has shattered into a million pieces, and coping with seeing family for the holidays and knowing that things are so different now. We lost my grandfather back in April, so this was the first Christmas without him. Needless to say, depression has certainly been kicking my ass.

Healing is not linear, and I’ve certainly been in a rollercoaster through this. But the last few days I’ve caught myself doing things again. I picked up my guitar for the first time in over a year. It may has just been for a few minutes, but I played and it felt nice. I bought a new sketch pad and drew briefly. And just last light I crocheted for 2 hours. I paused and smiled at myself because I realized what was happening. I was finally getting an interest back in the things I’ve loved.

It’s crazy how debilitating mental illness can be. I went through days of crying and not crying and wanting to punch things and sleeping all day and then not sleeping at all. Days where I didn’t want to interact with anyone and days where I didn’t want anyone to leave my side because I was so scared of my thoughts. But it’s relieving to see these little signs of light seeping through the cracks.
