I have an idea of the life I want and I'm still working towards that picture perfect image I have in my head. This one isn't what I want or could have ever imagined would be mine.

Almost like your life,
Almost like your endless fight,
Curse, the day is long,
Realize you don't belong,
Disconnect somehow,
Never stop the bleeding now,
Almost like your fight,
And there it went,
Almost like your life

I don't look in the mirror much at all, but I do think that I wouldn't want to be anyone else. My anxiety is hard, but I am so glad I was born to have a passion for the things I love, and the good health to be able to do them.

Yeah, I think a lot "This is not the life I have chosen" but then I realise that this IS the life I must have chosen.

I'm still trying that's why it sucks so bad. I pull a stupid face in the mirror just to feel good.

Suicidal when realised it's all gone

Frustrated when realising it's STILL possibe.

yeah, i think that a lot..
i actually find my self thinking.. "this isn't me"
i've changed a lot. i'm not the only person who thinks so either. my cousins, family, boyfriend..they all say i'm not who i used to be. something about me has changed.
i'm not sure if that's good of bad..

I've got the life I deserve. It is just a random jumbling of influences that make me who I am. It just happens to be that the pieces fell into place where I must be alone.

the more i keep trying to retrace my steps

and figure out where i made the wrong turn,

the more i realize it wasn't just one wrong turn

i've made so many wrong turns that now i'm on a completely different path from where i started

there doesn't seem to be any way to get back

so the only choice is to keep moving forward from here

It'd be nice if I could kick-start my life over again from the point where the SA took root (about 16 for me), but life's kind of a rip-off in that way.

I can exchange a broken toaster for a new one, but unfortunately (in some ways) I'm stuck in the model I'm in, so I'll just have to work on it til it runs better.

Fantasizing about a different me is a huge waste of time, and we're all given the same amount of time here (not much), so getting over the SA is the first job. I helped myself out by going to a concert last night.
Didn't meet anyone, still felt spotlit, but not as much and I loosened up quite a bit more, actually forgetting once or twice that people paid money to watch the stage, not me :rolleyes:.

Ok, it's a little embarassing, but here it goes. My anxiety didn't start until I was around 22. I was with a girl, and everything was going well, until I wen't to stick my junk inside her. I was fully erect for the blowjob, but intercourse for some reason made me shrivel. I couldn't figure this out, because I had been with multiple women before and there was never a problem. I had a girlfriend at the time (shame on me) so I figured it might be a guilty concious thing. That being said, I did the same girl later on with a full erection and ejaculated. However, since then it seems that my self esteem is lowered, and I find myself getting nervous in everday situations, like simply going to hang out with a friend. It's strange how the mind works.
 
I mostly just think "I wish I had a different life" But honestly I love myself.

This may sound weird, but I sometimes think that if I didn't have SA and depression, I'd be the most amazing person ever! lol..
 
We don't own life, we merely borrow it. My life is bigger then what just I think it should be.

Adept to current circumstances -and- desires, not to desires only.

That can be a powerful realization.

What our life is, rather what we think it is, is ourselves and is not a full measurement of what life is or can be due to a highly personalized perspective. Only we have the power, in that particular matter, to change ourselves and thereby change the perspective of how we see the world through a reflective state of our being.
