Today has been stressful but I try to remain positive.

(Novel warning)!

A lot of back and forth, assembling, picking up dropping off, and overall chaotic! 🥴

I struggle pretty badly with depression and sometimes I just cannot be bothered with anyone or anything. It’s gotten to the point where I struggle to even get myself out of bed.

When I’m not tasked or busy I run to my room like I’m trying to win a marathon just so I can sleep every second of free time away.

I wondered why I did that, thought I was just addicted to dreaming but folks I haven’t had a dream In a while it’s all just blackness.

I’m starting to realize the older I get the faster time moves for some reason, I think I’m sleeping trying to speed up my life cycle.

I hide away in my room 24/7 it’s been this way my whole life I always felt safe in my own space.

Spending most of my life isolated has made me yearn to be around people so when I see people I get VERY EXCITED and have high positive energy yet I struggle to make eye contact.

The worst part about that is people always want to see me and hangout and that’s just not how I’m wired.

I feel bad because I will tell my friends “Yeah I’m down to chill” but really I’m not and usually find a last minute “Reason” to work my way out of the social interaction.

I don’t think I’m “Too good” for people and I don’t try to “keep em in suspense”. I’m just broken and sometimes I can’t hide it and I don’t want people to see that side of me.

I don’t have a very high opinion of myself, a few months back I went to shave my face as usual. I looked in the mirror and thought about how much I hate my face and set my razor down.

I even stopped going to my barbers so I look like a homeless vagrant, I feel a lot better with my long unkempt beard and hair covering my face.

Today I cleaned my room because sometimes I just lack the power or spirit to do anything but sleep.

I feel a bit more at ease, I’m burning some nice incense and listening to classical music and “easy listening”. Which is a change from the rock and dubstep I’m always listening to but a nice change.

Sorry for the novel thanks for reading and listening to me. 🙂

@Nyxxx I agree 100% with you there, however if people GENUINELY need me I’m always there.

If somebody is messaging or calling me just to go to a bar or chill then I'm likely gonna find an excuse to weasel my way out of it. 😂

Do you work?
Sleepysheep · 26-30, M
@tobynshorty Yes I do Its just under the table work nothing fancy but it pays my bills and keeps my dog fed and stocked with chew toys.

Filing to get my ID back so I can do some delivery work like Uber eats or skip the dishes in the mean time. Wanted to save up and go for a trade maybe in welding or mechanics something that pays decently but that I love doing.

My problems is when I get depressed I let myself go and struggle in my personal life pretty badly.

My bills and rent don’t care about my feelings sadly. Be nice if they did though eh?! 😆

Sleepysheep · 26-30, M
@Ferise1 I am an Aries lol it’s kind funny because I sent the reply to your last message the same time you sent this one. 😂
Ferise1 · 46-50, M
Are you a Pisces?
Ferise1 · 46-50, M
@Sleepysheep you probably have other planets in Pisces it’s right next to it. I’m an Aries with pisces mars
Sleepysheep · 26-30, M
@Ferise1 Could you break that down in laymen’s terms for me brother?
Ferise1 · 46-50, M
@Sleepysheep well people think we only have one sign, the “star sign” but astrologers call it the sun sign, because it’s the position of the sun on the day of birth. But there’s all the other planets and their movements are erratic, it changes from year to year. So you might be an Aries Sun, but have mercury in Pisces, Venus in Pisces, Mars in cancer etc…
There’s also the rising sign, to get that you need the exact time of birth, and it represents your main personality, how you engage with the world.
