I've had like, three sleeps today already and I am not done with sleep yet. And every time I sleep, I fill the gaps between the things I want to be doing without getting bored. Because my attention span is very short and because I get tired really fast. Cognitive fatigue. It's one of my early warning signs but I am sticking to sleeping to fix it because ew meds.

I've actually had a pretty good couple of days. Terrified about the new year but oh well. Can't make time move faster.

I have felt so bad about myself lately. I have gained so much weight it is ridiculous. I am now definitely overweight and this just doesn't feel good or healthy for me but yet I eat anyway and don't exercise and don't do anything to stop it and then keep feeling bad about myself when I gain weight. I'm so fat and have so many stretchmarks it's so gross. I am so gross in general. My teeth are bad and I have acne and eczema and my hair is wild and never tame and I have no style. I am selfish and disappointed...

Hello everyone,

This year's news headlines have focused on many grim topics. As wars continue to unfold internationally, many of us have experienced mass shootings and violence locally. Individuals and organizations alike have spread messages of hatred and fear in order to gain power and influence over others. Looking back on 2015, it may be tempting to say, "the world is a...

Well I'm 9 days clean of cutting hope to keep it up . Today my youngest brother came back from his dads which sucks cause now both of them are home ughh but tommarrow is christmas and I have to go to my aunts that will most likely lead to me being made fun of for being the "goth kid" of the family but all well anyways I hope everybody has a great christmas

So I just want to have a brief spazz. Because earlier this evening I was walking home balancing a pizza on my hip when I happened across this cute lady. I was vaguely enjoying her smile when I got a "Hi Jess!"

Turns out I know her from the custody unit
My brain kinda froze though, I didn't even think to ask for her name.

And had I not been carrying a pizza I'm pretty sure I would have got a hug.

Sigh. Hopefully our paths shall cross...

I can't believe that I have made it a whole week with out cutting!!! I almost had a slip yesterday but I got myself together last night one of my brothers had to come back home because he was being a brat at his dads house which sucks :/ this morning my grandfather came by and woke the whole house up gave me and my brother $50.00 each and my mom something don't know what tho. Now I'm at the house by myself because my parents went shopping. Reallly boring :/

Today starts the Long sixth day clean of cutting. Today is going to be rough... I'm probly going to be sitting in my room all day :/. I was told by my best friend that she would call and we would be able to hang out but she once again didn't call or even texted ughhh she helps me a lot with my depression and it gets really hard to manage... I have that urge again and its bad this time... I don't want to resort to cutting... But damn its hard...

Well today marks day five of not cutting and it feels great not having to do it so much. My brothers are away on a vacation ( THANK GOD). I don't think they will be back for another 2 days. But anyways Teen help is really helping me get through the daily struggle of life I want to thank you all for the nice welcome I received. ^-^ PS: this is my first ever blog so sorry if I messed up something.
