I Learned to Let Go

Attention is nice, because sometimes i feel as if i don't exist. Sometimes i don't have motivation or i lose all ambition. i can lie down and stare at the wall for hours or just lose track of time and no one will know, because no one misses me and when i do that is when i realize there is a problem. If i don't have someone's attention, then i will abandon relationships, because i rate too low on their list of priorities and maybe it just means that they have too many priorities. i'd appreciate it when someone can admit that they have too many priorities and just let me go.

im wondering if this feeling isn't from over work and being so busy and not eating properly , staying up late doing projects that you had people helping but never did there the ones ignored you

@olderuncle944 i was drained and becoming barely able to function, but i felt better after being assigned mandatory rest.

i feel ignored in general.. by everyone. With my graduation from college I will lose 5 friends and 2 jobs. i don't get to see any of my classmates or the people i carried through college anymore and i'm alone.. completely alone.

you know im here and if you don't tell me how your feeling or what is going on how would I know
I think some of what your feeling is decompression from always studying or working to suddenly stopping
I ask almost every day how you are feeling and how was your day you are not abandoned

are all you classes over

shimmeringrose · 46-50, F

@olderuncle944 yes, all of my life is over.

shimmeringrose · 46-50, F

@olderuncle944 you've been asking me to tell you about my day, not about how i feel. my day can be great, but i can still feel terrible.

olderuncle944 · 70-79, M

you will now work on getting drivers license and a job see your life isn't over when one door closes another one opens

when I ask about your day I also meant how are you feeling

shimmeringrose · 46-50, F

@olderuncle944 Oh. Then you really need to be more specific, Sir. i require specific and step by step instructions or questions.

i'm already working on getting a job. i haven't had time to do anything about a license.
