I stay because I'm so worried about making others sad with my disappearance but the reality is I make people sad even when I'm around. If I was gone people would feel no worse than they do currently. In the long run my disappearance would probably make them happier. Ouch.

[kishu.]

i feel worthless.

[Chibss]

i know i was doing it for my sake
but burning bridges still hurts
especially after they've been your
friend for so so so long.

i feel stupid for putting my
health first.

i just couldn't handle both
my and their issues at once, it's
overwhelming as can be.

i should be feeling more relaxed but now
im just sad.

It's okay to feel sad about it. It was the right choice to put your health before your friendship. I know that kinda sounds bad, but if your friend doesn't understand what you've been going through, and doesn't understand your choices, then they weren't really your friend.. And it will feel sad about losing the good times you've had together, but again, they chose not to respect you. I hope that you can feel the burden lift from your shoulders.. And after a while, I'm sure you can be happy.
I'm here for you if you want to talk <3

I just want you to love me.
You are an amazing man. I don’t understand why we are doing this to ourselves.
We’re hurtung each other. I just want you to try to make this happen.
But you don’t want that and I am not going to force you to do something you don’t want. I just want this to work out in the end.
I want you. I don’t want another guy, I want you. You are amazing.

I know there's really no benefit to talking about this here, I think I just wanted a place to get it out. My former gym teacher passed away in a horrible accident today; she was jogging beside the highway and was hit by a car. It came as such a shock, because I see her all the time (she lives about a block or two from me) and she's always been in incredible shape, like marathon-running shape, so I thought she would be around a lot longer with no health complications. I've been feeling down about it around noon. I guess this is just another one of those reminders that you never know the last time you see someone will be the last time.

Also, to those of you who drive, please, please...don't ever get distracted while you're behind the wheel. We're all guilty of doing so on occasion, but a moment of convenience isn't worth someone's life.

I hope you're in a great place, Ms. Porter. You deserve it. Rest In Peace

To apochrypha, gosh but you deserve all the cuddles from that fluffy Rose. That's got to be tough. Any time something so big happens, it's tough. I feel for you.

-*-*-
I hurt someone's feelings today, and I didn't mean to. I know our friendship is strong, and I know they'll be okay. But I wish it were easier to fix mistakes like that. As if there were magic words you could say to make everything better. I've said all I can, and now I really ought to close my mouth and give them space. So I will. But it's hard.

I shall scoop up Miss Rose and give her all the scratches and cuddles. My friend will be okay, but until then, I'm not alone.

I can't deal with this anymore...I've been in this abusive relationship too long...way too long...

I had a friend a while back ago and they started bickering with me constantly...I was walking on eggshells...everything I did was a sin...and they'd tell their mom and they'd tell my mom and she'd get upset at me...this was almost a full year...

Now between Halloween and Christmas, last year, they continued planning things without me behind my back (it happened a lot...) and I 'caught' them and through two days of arguing- DURING MY VACATION- I had, me, apologised for insisting they were a liar...

Now up until this point this argument was brought up every time we disagreed. I realised this wasn't a friend of mine anymore and I distanced myself. My mom realised their claims were made up and she started siding with me.
At the end of the school year she yelled at me for the last time. I was finally free from everything...ha...



Two days ago while my mom was shopping she ran into that friend's mom...and the mom yelled at my mother and was crying at my mom about how I have ruined her daughters life- in target. My mom was extremely embarrassed and now their mom is texting with my mom again all about that stupid- again- STUPID argument from almost a year ago

I'm sorry for the long post but I can't tell anyone. They're friends with her. I'm sorry I know this isn't the biggest issue in the world and I don't know what I want to hear...

[dxrmon]

i want to cry and break something. some stupid bully is picking on service dogs and their handlers, my friends and i are trying our hardest to stop it, then they started bullying my dog. tiny is basically my other half, she makes me feel more safe, makes me feel happier, and so much more. i love her so much, im going to be reuniting with her in 2 days but this just really has me mad..i want to break something but im at my grandparents house so i cant do that at all..their page isn't loading now so i think their account was deleted? i feel so defeated for not being able to stop this by myself. the fact that instagram doesnt do anything until hundreds of comments were spammed on all of their hateful posts is ridiculous. im just really mad, i feel lightheaded and i want to cry :) good life.

[ghostbite]

I'm trying everything to make my feelings go away for him, I know he probably doesn't like me, he's just going to end up leaving me like everyone else does and I probably mean nothing to him but I can't stop liking him and wishing I could go back to the days where we we're cuddling together or even just being with him. I wish I could tell him how much he means to me.. I hate getting attatched to people so easily and have the hardest time letting go.. Why can't I just be happy again..
I'm sorry if I sounds hella annoying in this post.

Do you ever just with you could stop getting so many injuries? Probably not, because not many people get a lot of injuries. Injuries as in orthopedic injuries (sprains, fractures, etc). Wouldn’t your sanity slowly crumble away after 20 injuries in the last 6 years?

It’s just injury after injury, and I don’t think I’ve ever gone 6 months without one. I’ve had a lot of injuries, and I’d say I’ve had too many to count, but then no one would understand just how bad it is. Plus, when the number is this high, you’d want to keep track too.
Sometimes the injuries aren’t too bad. A sprained ankle? Fine, just throw a brace or ACE bandage on it. But other times, they’re just downright awful. Playing guessing games for months on end before getting an MRI to reveal the truth. Finally getting an accurate diagnosis so that I can get the proper treatment to heal it.

I just recently got over a shoulder injury. From September-mid January, dealt with the pain with the label of shoulder instability. Got an MRI, found out it’s actually a partial tear in the labrum. Come April, after a cortisone shot, 48 hours of intense pain, and physical therapy, I was finally better.
Then, 2 or 3 weeks later, in May, my knee starts bothering me. No injury, no accident, no known cause whatsoever. One month goes by of having a brace, icing it, and taking ibuprofen on my own, no signs of improvement. Got it checked out, they gave me a new brace, but that made it worse. Got an MRI. Great, right? Wrong. Nothing turned up on the MRI. Flash forward to now, after doing physical therapy for 2 months and getting a cortisone shot a cortisone shot 4 weeks ago. My knee is not any better.

Can you imagine dealing with pain in one part of your body for months, inhibiting your normal life, the pain never going away for even just 16 hours?
That’s my life right now. It’s been like that for the majority of 11 months now. I loved playing tennis. Promised my coach I’d help with summer practices. Haven’t picked up my racket since about mid November. Woke up depressed from having dreams about playing again. But hey, that just life. My life.
