I Am Trying To Be Normal

I am trying. I am trying to go out and go on dates and be social. I know the risk. The slightest misstep and I will fall back into the void. I am trying not to. I got stood up today. My mind was on fire. I did not react. I wanted to react...to burn...to bleed. I didn't. I'm trying to figure out why people don't want to be around me. Once I do, I will change it. I will morph myself into what is needed to be normal or break down in the process.

Hang in there. Try to stay positive. You have great traits. Every person does. Do you have anxiety? I do. I see a therapist. It does help if you find a good one. I want to encourage you. Just keep swimming as Dory the fish says. 🙂

@CharlesTheThird I am a vortex of various undiagnosed and untreated mental issues.

@bunnyXbunny Well, you’re not alone there. I have some rare diagnoses. The important thing is to treatimg the symptoms. That’s all a diagnosis is good for. It helps doctors and shrinks know better how to treat the symptoms.
