deeper i want to scream 6/1/2004



I got your letter and the poetry you sent me
Postmarked in december of last year
I really hope you're doing better
All of your friends close by your side
One step closer to recovery

I wish there was something i could say
To erase each and every page that you've been through
Even though its not my place to save you

I appreciate but can't accept this thank-you note
Thats sealed with your last breath
I won't stand aside and listen to you give up

If you'll just hold on for one more second
Just hold on to what you have
If you'll just hold on, just hold on
You will wake up tommorrow

These arms remain stretched out to you
Maybe someday you'll accept them
Or maybe its too late to save a young girls heart that's long stopped beating

Wake up, wake up you've gotta believe
Wake up, wake up you cant give up
Time keeps going on without us
Long after we're dead and gone

I wish there was something i could say
To erase each and every page
You've been through
Even though its not my place to save you

I appreciate but can't accept this thank-you note
Thats sealed with your last breath
I won't stand aside and listen to you give up

If you'll just hold on for one more second
Just hold on to what you have
If you'll just hold on, just hold on
You will wake up tommorrow

i don't know what to say. i don't understand how things can change this quickly. i was staying at my aunts because my cousins are down for half term, and they asked me to. everyone was in bed, but i stayed up. i wondered around aimlessly, and inexplicably collapsed on the kitchen floor and began having an anxiety attack. there didn't appear to be a cause. i can't remember what i was thinking. i couldn't breath. i don't like it when things get this way. i don't even have a good enough reason for them to be happening.

the night before and after my english exam, i smoked a spliff out my window. i think it was laced with coke or some sort of pill, i don't know. but i put on whale music to try and calm myself down because i was stressing out, and laying there in bed was euphoric. images were filtering through my head that i'm sure i recognised, but i'm certain i've never seen before. they were weird... like an old computer game sort of style. but these images were going round and the sounds were, indesribable. although my heart was beating uncontrolably fast, and my breathing was short and irregular, i knew there was nothing i could do about it - and it just added to the effect of things. i've never felt that was before in my life. i'd give anything to go to sleep that way every night. and i just thought, how nice it would be to have sex when feeling that way.

relationship stuff is weird. theres this guy who's asked me out and wants to meet up and stuff. i've known him for a while. but he's kinda a drop out, druggy sort of guy. not really headed anywhere. and while i know i'm almost exactly the same, i don't know how i'd deal with that sort of thing. i don't know how old he is... older than me... around 18? but i dunno... it's weird and i don't know what to do. i ignore his calls.

i can't stop stressing out about exams. all i can concentrate on is how badly i'm going to fail. i was so rushed for time in english lit, and i'm paranoid that i answered the question wrong or wrote about nonsense. ::sigh:: i don't know what to do anymore. revision doesn't seem to have an effect. while i do learn stuff, i just feel like it won't ever be enough, and whatever i have learnt will be useless when it comes to it. i guess everyone feels this way.

i did a test after reading it on another diary. it's called "do i need therapy?"

isn't that something to be proud of.

i was doing well with purging. since being on my version of atkins, i hadn't done it at all for about 5 days, which is the longest for a few months. but i ate until i was more than full and panicked and had to purge. done it twice in a week though, which isn't so bad. i was losing on the diet, i'd lost 5lbs in 4 days, but i seem to have gained, though i'm not counting it because i had just drank a lot of water and eaten. any excuse. i'll weigh myself tomorrow morning to find out whats going on. all i want to do is lose weight. my aunt made me laugh. "but she's almost anorexic!" suuure... this is coming from someone who has been overweight all her life and is fine with it. that sounded bitchy/discriminative. i didn't mean it like that, its just we have completly different views on weight. theres no way i'm anorexic anyway. i'd have to lose like 40lbs to be considered anorexic, and i don't have any of the criteria. so there.





Criteria and diagnosis; a strange world it is indeed. Clinical, paper tasting words to describe something that tastes far more bittersweet.

Well done for resisting with purging but please be careful and perhaps try to switch for an atkins style regime to something healthier.

Take care of yourself and anjoy the half-term break. [Faded being]

i think that everyone in the world has borderline personality disorder at some point. the symptoms are just so vague. i wish i could do more for you hon. let me know if i can. xoxo *~ [To Read Others.] 6/1/2004 12:02:12 PM
My friend said those tests aren't right
he said everyone who took them would find something wrong with them
I think he's right
Be careful with the drugs.. they could cause some problems when you're older
Don't worry about the exams
by September they'll mean pretty much nothing to you
Love

I feel as though I just finished reading about my own past. It's such a sad thing, and it got me very down right now. I don't like to see you hurting, in fact, I don't like to see anyone hurting. You seem like a lovely person, and your life could be so much happier. I promise I will pray for you.

if there's one thing you learn
as you get help
it's that criteria doesn't always fit the situation.
you can be anorexic without being underweight
and you can have bipolar,
even if you're symptoms aren't "severe enough"-
i know from experience;
but it's in getting the help
for whatever reason
that health is found

ps - it's also in wanting the help/health
(i'm not trying to preach,
sorry if it sounds like it)
i'm worried about all this drug use/abuse
:\
