This is going to be a poor quality rant because I don't know exactly what to say. Do you ever just feel 'off' one way or another but find the feeling hard to place? I think I might be scared but I don't know why. Fear I've made a social mistake? Might be sad, too.

I had a fight this morning but it isn't that.

I am trying today, I am trying to do the right thing for my own mental health. I've been tidying my room and it's getting there. I phoned back my doctor when they left a voicemail, and I made an appointment as requested. Normally I find returning calls/checking voicemail quite daunting, but I did it. I made peace (ish) with my dad without ceding any ground, and I know I won because he's talking to me.

So why do I feel so bloody :?: :( :?: :cry: :?: :pale: :?: ???
I am pretty low, but since I don't know why I'm also guilty. Other people's problems are more tangible, therefore they feel more valid. I want something to take the edge off. I want someone to hold my hand. The seeming impossibility that either of those wants will be fulfilled is crushing me.

Yep, that was low quality rambling at its finest. Sorry guys. :(


PS. ^^^ Hope the police are gone and you are left in peace. Once you've established a connection between police and anxiety it's pretty impossible to break. Plus you get more anxious because you think your anxiety will make you act strange, and draw unwanted attention.

racheypie666 and cathylynn,

Yes they left, it appears someone is having a bad holiday experience. It seems they followed three vehicles that were traveling together up in here and I stopped caring when I saw them talking amongst themselves. Except lol my neighbor saw me using binoculars in the hallway... I don't even care lol

Sorry for delay, I am cooking thanksgiving for myself... to enjoy... alone... :cry:

^^^ Good :) That they left, not that you're alone, or that the other people had a run-in with the police. Keep digging lol...

Did you try and hide the binoculars, or did you play it casual and just keep on using them 8) ?

Happy thanksgiving!

I did not stop what I was doing, they asked me what I was doing, I turned and stared at them for a few seconds and went back to what I was doing, they left eventually. lol

MORE RANTING

2/3 of my direct neighbors think I am special and the other wants to kill me.

However 1 of the 2 that think I am special is pissing me off because he thinks he can get away with stuff like acting a fool at my front of door, using drugs with his door open, and making as much noise as possible at 3:00 AM. :cry:

He is actually right now that I think about it :cry:

I am not calling the cops on him because I don't want to deal with them :skull:

All 4 of my neighbours think I'm special, I'm pretty sure.
One of them in his 60s makes inappropriate comments to me if I'm on my own. He's cheating on his wife too, I've seen him. I don't think it's any of my business to do anything about that though.

Best just to maintain as safe and cordial a relationship/distance as possible with bad neighbours I think.

Its amazing what you can witness as a child and someone perceived as lacking cognitive functioning.

Since I have made so many mistakes here and just stop talking at some point. People say horrible things in front of me, they speak as though I am not in the room and last time I was waiting for a pizza. Everyone in the building starting talking about me like I was not in the room. :cry:

Yeah it's funny what you can observe when people underestimate you.

Ouch, that's rough. A colleague did that to me a while back. Ironically she was talking about how I never say anything, and I wouldn't say anything to this. Well, she was right; how the hell am I supposed to know how to respond to that kind of thing anyway? The options are a)ignore b)get aggressive, and b) isn't really an option in most situations.

Not if I want to keep my job anyway :roll:

In other news, I want something really bad right now and I can't have it. I deliberately didn't buy it so I wouldn't be tempted (a major win in itself). Now my mind is going crazy looking for alternatives, or thinking I could go out now and get some now .
Just an endless loop of >>I want X>>I need X>> s**t, I don't have any>> scanning all possible locations and options >> no, f**k, I really don't have any>>... but... >>I want X>> and so on.

Shut up brain, I will win today for once in my life. I will f*****g win.

Edit to clarify the X in question isn't a nefarious substance. Rachel-destroying yes, but nothing conventionally awful.

LOL

I want X too :P

But I heard you and I can sometimes have a problem with online shopping but I don't worry about it cause I have always been able to pay my bills. However, I know the feels of wanting something you can't have :cry:

I didn't reply not because I think my issues are more important then yours but I didn't know what to say for a while.

haha, well hard luck I'm all out :P

It's not online shopping this time, I wish it were. Then I would only be damaging my finances, whereas in this case my health, mind and finances are taking a hit. I can still stay afloat but I'd be doing so much better in every regard if I wasn't so weak for the X in question.* And I could say what it is, maybe I will some day, but I'm going to coward out. People wouldn't get it > judgement> rejection :( .

*or maybe I'd just be failing differently

I didn't give in! I won, for a whole day!
:star:
Depressing what an achievement that is, but hey, I did it. I will try and make it 2 days if I can manage the next 6 hours.

^ Alas no, I have a handle on cake consumption.
I make them, and everybody else eats them before I can get a slice.

That means they're good at least :roll:

You have to make sure you get at least a piece of your ingenuity.
