I want to die.
A now ex-friend of mine thinks I slept with her ex-boyfriend. I never did. He thinks I am pretty, and kissed me. I have dated my boyfriend for over a year. I told her ex to back off, and told her it's not true.
She is continually calling my phone and leaving voicemails verbally abusing me. She told me I deserved it when I got raped at age 14 (that's how I lost my virginity). That I deserved all the abuse I've endured for years. And that I don't deserve Kyle (my bf).
He saved my life.
But all of this is making me more depressed, triggering flashbacks, and thoughts of cutting more. I cut last night, and I'm supposed to go to the hospital today. But now I just want to lock my bathroom door and carve deep into my arm.
I'm so scared, maybe I did deserve it. Maybe I don't deserve Kyle. All I know is that I can't handle all these feelings all at once.

I am sorry! I know how you feel and I know that it sucks, and its to get through, but you can get through this! Try to calm down. I know I know it is easier said than done, but try! For one, rape is NEVER the victims fault. For two, try not to make any decisions right now concerning the past or your boyfriend. For three, I really really don't want you to cut yourself! Try to find a distraction or go see a friend! I know if you are like me you want to stop hurting yourself too. So, going to the hospital may be good. Anything that will help you not to hurt yourself is a good thing!!

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...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
