doomed?

ahh. rain. that pretty much sums up my day.

I self harmed earlier, after having a COLOSSAL argument with my dad. feel awful now. and I get to pretend that everythings okay later. I'm going out to a presentation thing with my boyfriend tonight, I'll tell him. but not tonight. it's his special thing. I don't want to ruin it.

I can't believe I caved in. I tried the whole elastic band thing. It bruised, yet, still wasn't quite enough.

am I doomed to feel like this forever?

It feels like I'm so pathetic and worthless, it's all my fault I know, but I wish I could escape all of this.

NO you're not doomed! It does get better... I mean we're all in the same place but aren't there times when you feel ok/good? If there are...any time at all... then that is proof.. once my mom said to me that it always get better; and I said yea, but then it always gets worse again....... but then again it ALWAYS GETS BETTER it is inevitable

hope that made sense

You are not doomed, pathetic, or worthless. I know things sure can feel that way sometimes.

I don't find the elastic band helpful myself. I find it upsets me and that makes me want to SI more.

You are in my thoughts & prayers.

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
