I'm laying awake, I should be sleeping seeing as how I have work later but I just have so much on my mind I figure if I released it somehow..maybe I'll be able to gain a bit of respite if only for an hour or so.
I've lost so much of myself this year, everything has just been so overwhelming..I'm constantly haunted by it all, I feel like I've fallen so far, financially I'm in better shape than I ever have been in my life but internally I haven't felt so empty in years. I'm trying to stay positive though, trying to remind myself things eventually pass...I can get back to where I was before in life, it just takes time...At one point I achieved a happiness I'd never thought I'd be able to reach...now realizing I did it once before, I know it's in the realm of possibility. I've been trying to stay away from drinking, seeing as how it's always just robbed me of everything I've loved, especially this year. I haven't shaved in weeks, I look beyond haggard but I really don't mind at this point in time..I'm just trying to pick myself back up off the canvas once more..life hits hard but I must remind myself to endure.
To anyone that has reached out to help, you don't understand how much your kindness means to me..I have a bad habit of trying to deal with everything myself cause I don't like to put my issues upon the backs of others, so the fact I usually don't reply isn't me trying to be rude so please don't take it that way...I'm just not used to people reaching out and lending a hand, and while I will still choose to bare all this weight to myself...I can't thank you enough for your kind words and concern...that alone means the world to me.
