Documenting my downfall
So I don't mind people reading this (obviously it's online). It's really just a
way I've found helpful in keeping track of my moods & grounding myself.
This page is a mix of my own depressive & psychotic episodes, along with
paintings I do when I can't find the words to describe the feelings.

I've been okay lately. No major overwhelming thoughts or bad hallucinations. The
come-down is hitting though. The headaches that set in after those days-weeks of
distress & mental anguish are always painful. Migraines have set in this time. The
light is directly singeing my mind. My tolerance for people has dropped
significantly. I'm going to try sleep it off or stay inn darkness until it become
manageable.
I've also come to realise that killing myself is inevitable. I never expected to
make it past 18, yet here I am almost a decade later, still alive, still struggling.
I don't know when I'll die, but I know how. I think I've always known how. The
mental struggle has been lifelong in one way or another. It really is the only way
out. I feel no emotion towards the idea anymore. It's just the reality I've finally
come to accept.

Things have been a struggle. I feel I am unable to convey the severity of my psychosis to doctors & my psychiatrist. I've been to hospital 4 times this past 2 weeks & had the cops called for a welfare check, leading to being detained & taken to the hospital again. I feel like I'm running out of options. The auditory hallucinations & the inability to discern what reality is or isn't is getting really bad. I'm doing everything I'm supposed to. Everything doctors & professionals recommend. Things are getting worse for me. I can handle the anxiety & the suicidal ideation. I've learned to cope with that. I can't handle the psychosis. It's out of my control. It's outside of normal therapy limits. I can't use normal CBT or DBT therapy to cancel out the sounds & the reality slips. I've tried. I'm trying. I'm so tired.

It's Sunday now. I took last week off of work (except for Thursday).
Depression is hitting hard lately. It's been really difficult seperating
reality from my dreams. Waking up is hard. Each morning feels like I'm waking up
early from anaestheic & my body is fighting the need to wake. I just feel so
mentally burnt out & my mental battery isn't recharging.
I've done quite a lot
of painting & drawing & even remaking this site, all so I can physically see I'm
making progress on SOMETHING at least. It is helping to a degree, though I feel lost
& misplaced.
The thoughts of suicidal ideation remain at the forefront of my
mind, but moreso in the sense of 'what am I achieving? What am I doing in life? Is
there a way to live with purpose that isn't just a job?'
I haven't had a
breakdown. I'm not sure what's keeping my head intact. Perhaps it's just the overall
feeling of numbness.
I'm starting to wish I could find something to be swayed
into believing in. I might find meaning if I believed in some delusion or religion,
but I jsut don't see that happening any time soon. You can only live under the
pretense that 'things will get better' for so long. You can't stay alive for the
sake of others forever.
Some people simply aren't good at things & that's just
life.
It'd be nice to be able to see things clearly one day.

This is the start of this new edition of my ramblings page. I threw this site
together today while I'm at quite a functionable point in my mental.
I'm hoping that I can keep up with writing out my feelings & thought-processes here
just as an additional grounding method for myself.
I haven't worked for 5 days
so far & am feeling quite recharged, not fully but mostly, so I'm hoping I can aim
until the end of year without a breakdown.
