she asked me to write ab today’s session ab what she said what was going through my head why i see myself as this double sided mirror and why i’m so hard on myself she asked me to write and i never fail my assignments so i am here to deliver i don’t think she really understands that theres more to me that js the eye can see and i don’t know how to get her to see i hate talking ab my problems i hate my family i hate being scared to eat food i hate being me so i watch others and dream of a life thats js like theirs daydreaming that’s me but deep down the reality is that quite possibly could never be me i’m smart but not smart enough i’m hard working but it’s never enough i’m pretty but not pretty that can please society i’m skinny but i’m not when i step near a scale i’m funny but not when i make a non rude joke i’m all these things that r not me and not all these things that r me so i watch others from my side of this double sided mirror that way at least for a lil i can reflect how everyone else is being and pretend that’s me so if she were to ask me again what was going through my head it would be that there is smth more that is wrong with me i don’t think it’s js anxiety at least not anymore i’m not scared that if we fix smth on the outer layer smth new will show up because i alr know there is smth there i alr know that a part of me is broken i js don’t want u to see me the way i do
