Stress
I’m losing my mind. I am so stressed out over everything that anytime I don’t get enough sleep, I turn into a weeping mess. Everything sets me off. Especially commercials. They are meant to elicit an emotional response and damn do they work on me lately. Let’s go through some of the shit I have…
Art
Art is the essence of capturing the beauty of life. Even in the darkest times, there is still beauty to be found. It is hard to remember that these days. I cannot and will not allow these atrocities to ruin life completely. I need to always be grateful for what is still here. – The…
My journey with ADHD (not comprehensive)
I remember in high school and beyond, I kept thinking I was Bipolar based on my impulsivity and other manic-like habits. ADHD was nowhere near my mind until my 30’s. It took until it was officially my 35th birthday for me to be diagnosed with ADHD. I can’t believe how far I got in life…
Grilled Cheese
Have you ever had a nostalgic experience while eating a certain type of food? Mine is the simple grilled cheese. Texas toast, American slices, and a buttery coating. It brings me right back to college. My residence hall had a cafeteria in the basement and late at night they made the BEST grilled cheese. So…
Random musings, I guess?
When I was a teenager, pre-Jersey Shore, I had a serious thing for men from New Jersey. Very a la Bruce Springsteen in his younger days. (his Glory Days, if you will.) What I’ve come to realize since I have matured is that: A) I actually have no desire to be with a man from…
Regrets(?)
I have many regrets in life and that is probably the root of my depression. Two major ones include not being a theater kid in high school and not being a librarian. I was forced by my parents and teachers into doing march band for five years. I would have been eight but I didn’t…
Reason #782 that I hate Summer
Once I was invited by a person, I thought I was friends, to a pool party. I was so excited. This would have been a step up in our friendship and I was ecstatic. I went out the day of and bought a brand new bathing suit and sat by my phone waiting to hear…
How it’s been going, I guess
TW: sexual assault, body-image I have come to realize that men aren’t that complicated. I’ve spent way too much time trying to figure out if a man was attracted to me or pining after the ones who obviously weren’t. If a man wants you, he will let you know. They tend to not be coy…
Birthday Month
Aaaaand it’s my birthday month again. Since my birthday is in the exact middle of the month, I get to claim the whole month as my own. Which means that I get to be extra depressed for the whole month of June. I can’t believe how fast time flies when you’re barely surviving. My whole…
Running Away
TW: grief, illness, suicide, depression I love where I live. I grew up here and only have spent four years away. I’m the definition of a townie. I’ve grown so much here and have had so many experiences. But, I want to leave. I know that my desire to move from where I’ve always lived…
