Party is this weekend and I'm going to be completely honest, I'm not as excited as I should be. Just thinking about my depressed state makes me want to start fucking crying. I'm not a generally depressed person, but I know it's nothing to joke about, or to take lightly, especially when you can sense that you're messed up. And especially when some of the things in your life that bring you the most joy, are not bringing you joy, and it's inexplicable. You just don't know why.
I went out with my roomie and friend last night, and it was really nice after being cooped up in the apartment all day. I did some chores, took care of the kitties, did some minimal decorating, and watched Walking Dead all day. I've been re-watching for Geeks Who Drink Walking Dead themed trivia at the end of the month. Needless to say, I was in such a funk last night, I didn't make the effort to go to the gym and watch the season six premier (I don't have cable at home, so that's how I get my fix). So we just went to the karaoke bar around the corner. Less effort. I'll catch the new episodes eventually, not really worried about it. I don't even care about spoilers.
I truly am sorry for the depressing blogs though, but I think it's something that should be addressed and it helps me get it off my chest. You can say, oh, what do you have to be sad about, you're white privileged? What I have to say to those types of people is, it's none of your damn business I guess, and get the fuck off my blog. Millions of people suffer from depression and mental illness all across the globe, and most people don't talk about it so candidly, so I think it's fine that I do. You are not alone.
As for me, I'm just hoping it is a phase, as I've never been clinically depressed and it doesn't run in my family. Life becomes overwhelming in your head, and sometimes you just need to be a little sad so that when you are happy and good, you can appreciate it more. Are you picking up what I'm laying down? Good.
In any case, I managed to paint myself some zombie toes in the midst of this weekend, so that is your Halloween goodness from me!!
I know I keep saying that, but it IS coming!
Have a nice day, kittens. 'Ppreciate chya.
as someone who has been there, and often struggles with being there, it's really really good to get things out when you're feeling low. writing about it gives some relief, like sliding the lid just slightly off a boiling pot. of course then your shit goes popping and oozing all over the stove top, but ultimately, there is relief. hope things turn around for you soon, sweet girl.
