How are you feeling?

I went to my therapist and shopping straight after that, and I feel a bit better now. It was good to unleash some things to her, even if I didn't get to say everything in our hour (people after her were late, so it gave me more time). She told me I was a nice guy and that "there are more things right with you than wrong with you." :)

I've also noticed that my therapist is the one I talk to the most out of everyone I know.

That's great! Same here. Mine gets an earful.

Procrastinating about finishing my Christmas shopping. I loathe Walmart and also dislike that I can't just go in, get what I need and go home without feeling miserable... Everyone better like their gifts!!

I dislike shopping in general, too. It's best to just go in and do your thing as quickly as possible.

feeling down today. Was feeling really on top of things the last 2 days. It hurts more when there are down days after days of such stability. But life is still empty and still having trouble getting through the barriers. Try again tomorrow.

I'm okay for now I guess. Don't know for the future though... blah
Why? What's coming up?

I feel really lonely and want to be in a relationship but don't know how or why I want one so badly
I get fleeting moments of this myself. Sometimes I feel it would be nice to have someone there to cuddle up to. Loneliness is one of the worst feelings around so I hope you can push through that. You will meet a nice girl, Prez. You just need to be at the right place at the right time. :)

Sorry to hear you're feeling down, Escape. You seemed like you were on top of things with that thread you posted. However, it's never a clear cycle upwards - there are dips and crevices in the road that you have to weather first. It's a tough journey but you're making it and that's all that matters. :)

I like your attitude of "trying again" tomorrow. You are aware you've had a low day and it could turn around after a nice sleep. I hope it does.

^Have to attend a social gathering tonight. Just trying to have some courage lol. Hope you're well Mikey :)
Ah, social gatherings can be good, or they can be the pits. You never know...you may just enjoy yourself. For that reason I want it to go well for you. :)

I'm surviving, which is good enough. :)

I am doing the best, but sometimes it's difficult. I am hanging! :D

Its just one of those huge family gatherings with all the extended family. They're always very awkward to me but *fingers crossed* for this one. I'll let you guys know, wish me luck haha.

I know I would feel awkward at one of those shindigs, too. I've had to do a couple of them myself and they suck. Good luck!

Bitter. Cynical. Stuck inside my head (as I am most of the time). Ignored.

Fed up with feeling I need to please people all the time. And the fact my family rarely ever take me seriously. Sick of my oldest sister's perception that my life is easy. When I feel my life is the exact opposite. But, then again, she's doesn't have to deal with a disability on top of depression and anxiety issues.

(Cathartic, angry rant over.)

Relieved, because I finally got myself a part-time job. :) But also bored because until I start, I have absolutely nothing to do in the coming week.

^Hope you feel better but yeah people are unable to relate to stuff they don't understand. Maybe that's why your problems seem easy to your sister.
Like my family, well guesswhat I ALREADY KNOW THAT I'M A HOPELESS LOSER! AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO REMIND ME THAT EVERY SINGLE TIME!! Phew sorry for the rant!

I feel a bit better. Just needed to get that thought out of my head. And no need to apologize - we all need to rant from time to time.
