How are you feeling?

Why depressed? :O

Eh, honestly? I'm fed-up with constantly feelin' I have to make everyone else happy. Tired of people tellin' me what I should do with my life. I'm sick of being told I should like a certain TV show or sitcom just because everyone else does. I really hate my family, sometimes. Do ya see where I'm going with this...? I'm fed up with having to conform, basically.

Oh, and apparently, according to my oldest sister, I have one of those faces which looks "really depressed" when I'm not smiling. Which means 9 times out of 10 the followin' short conversation occurs:

"Are you okay? Ya look depressed"

Aye, fine, thanks"

"Are you sure now?"


Do you know how depressing it feel to be told that? Especially when yer actually feelin' okay? Or were feelin' awright... It's the "Are you sure?" follow-up that pisses me off. I mean, appreciate the concern and all, but f**k... just because I struggling with depression doesn't mean I wake up in the morning, hoping my day goes crap. I mean, I excuse the f**k outta me for not being one of those constantly upbeat, happy-on-the-inside/happy-on-the-outside, kind of people.

Sorry for the rant...

Oh boy, I know what you mean, I always hear "why are you sad?", and it doesn't help that I explain that that's how my face look like normally...

I think you should start doing what you want, to ignore what everyone else
likes and do what you want to do!

Yeah, I know what ya mean, there.

Yeah, I try to do that. But hard to not let other people's narrowminded comments affect you, especially when they come from your family.

Tired. So much work left to do... ugh. All I want to do is curl up in bed and not wake up before the winter has come to an end.

On edge... Not anxious... But jittery, like I can't sit still... Seriously... I have a habit of highlighting random bits of paragraphs while I'm reading online and at the moment the mouse is going click, click, click, constantly... About 2 clicks per second!

And I can't type properly.. My fingers are trying to go too fast and I'm making tons of typos... I think I need to calm down a little... It must be because I got flustered whilst cooking dinner... I was cooking the meal, plus cooking the dog's food, plus making chocolate fudge icing for a cake all at the same time... Having three different things to do at once got me just a little flustered... Not much, but it's the only explanation I can come up with..

Maybe you can do some breathing exercise and see if it helps you to calm down a bit or maybe some relaxing music?

****ing ugh I was anxious about school and my lousy appearance since I chopped my hair off, so what did I do, just chopped more off hoping it would somehow help. Greaaaat, now I think I'll stay inside for a year. And I started crying because I have to go to my first class of night school in... 10 minutes. Feel like a MESS. Never realized my social anxiety is more about body image. Hair in tatters = the next year in tatters. mother ****ing lajsdlkdfslk I do'nt know if I'll get to my class now ..
