For me personally this is the worst time of year. This is because at this time of year you have to be greatful for everything because if you are not greatful you are a horible person who does not deserve anything. But the people that are not thought about are the ones who have had a crap year, the ones who actually don't have anything to be greatful for because they would rather be dead. These are the people who are missed out because nobody thinks about them.

Sometimes we get discouraged,
Sometimes we feel like a failure,
That we aren't good enough
For anyone, or that we don't
Have any purpose in the world,
That lack and limitations
Do exist.

Thoughts like these
We need to quit thinking,
For if we continually get emotionally involved
With these kinds of thoughts,
They will become the reality
That we don't want.

And we wonder why
We keep creating...

Life sometimes wins. Today was an example of that for me.

I woke up and it was like any other day and then it started. First it is the panic then the wanting to cry, and then finally the self-harm urges and it has been hard not to give in to them but so far I have. Today was a day that I thought would be fine, I did not do much so why would I go into full meltdown mode. and writing this I still don't know.

But after today I am dreading the Christmas period. I can...

Stripped by Depeche Mode - I listened to this song when I was younger maybe 13/14 and loved it. Replayed it a thousand times. Forgot about it and then today I found the song again and I'm gushing at how good it sounds. I'm still listening to it. I bet the neighbours are sick of hearing it being replayed over and over again since 9am.

Anyways. Today I cleaned my bedroom, it's been ages since I've cleaned my room. I found the collar of my cat who passed away last month and I...

I am off my meds totally now after weaning off and the depression has already hit. I'm angry, sad, miserable. I have been having self harm urges but since it's been almost two and a half years I never have my tools on me anymore. I'm starting to think about taking them again.

I give up on learning how to drive. I accidentally hit the gas instead of the brake. We were in reverse so we reversed fast and almost went up and over a curb. I'll never get my license which means I'll never get...
