Heavy

My heart is heavy And so is my mind My limbs won’t move And I find I can’t stop thinking Of you my dear And how you slipped Into your deepest fear Old original art by me.

I got some sleep

Despite being really upset, I managed to fall asleep and stay that way. I think the hot bath I took last night helped calm me down. One of my friends told me how my friend ended her life. Not sharing that here. I was just better off not knowing. I am trying to be okay. …

Nothing is okay

I am not doing well at the moment. I’m trying to find things that are soothing and I’m failing. I can’t watch television or a movie because it is way overstimulating. I can’t focus to read. I can’t focus to create art. My stomach is a mess and I don’t want to put anything in …

my heart hurts

⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ My friend from high school completed suicide and I am heartbroken. I feel like I should have been able to do something to stop it. I knew she was in trouble. I knew it was bad. Since I didn’t know her baseline of bad, but kind of assumed it, …

Got some sleep anyhow

Granted, I had whackadoodle dreams all night long, but I got some sleep. I am glad, because I have a lot to do today. I promised friends I would spend time with them today. I’m at once looking forward to that, and at the same time, thinking camping in my bed all day sounds awesome. …

Should not have napped

It’s almost 3am and I’m still awake. I blame it on the 3 hour nap I took earlier in the day. I am praying I get to sleep at some point tonight. I have things I promised people I would do tomorrow. I can’t let people down again. I am really frustrated. Some of it …
