I Am Sleepy

My best friend was going through an almost break-up (she ended up not going through with it and I'm furious that she went back on her word, especially when seeing the parallels from my abusive, mentally ill ex.) so I decided to stay up with her and be there for her even though I had to work at 5 this morning and I slept terribly the night before. Well she decided to stay with him and by the time this was all figured out, it was 3 in the morning and I'm so livid. I wouldn't be this angry if she had stuck to her guns as planned, So now I'm struggling to stay awake and I have a 10 hour shift ahead of me. My body is and was not prepared for this.

Thanks you guys. And I hear you Monkey, but when you've experienced a severely mentally ill partner and someone you love is going down that path, it's not something you ever wish upon them. I don't want to see her end up in a potentially abusive relationship. I'll cool down in a few days and be as supportive as I can be.
