I haven't written in my diary on my computer since May because I thought that my computer was dying. I got away from writing but my computer is hanging in there. I think that I will start writing in it again. It's so therapeutic.

Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job. It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it. Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown. There was a full length mirror in the changing room. I'm aware that I gained 5 to 7 pounds over the last year from cheating on Keto but I didn't know what it looked like. It was a reality check.
What if?
What if this is the worst of how I feel and it won't always be this way? What if something happens (one day) that completely changes my outlook? A kind stranger, a moving conversation, a smile, a new friend? Something could happen one day and suddenly the blackness becomes shade due to the burning beacon of hope you may find.
Hope.
While you still breathe you still have it. Death may be eternal. But this life is just the only one we get. Dying will deprive yourself of any hope, happiness, love. Depriving potential future relationships.
Suicidal thoughts can be so desperate and terrifying............there really is nothing worse. Just don't act on those thoughts. Fight it for all your worth.
