In response to the text: *"who wants to get ********* this weekend?"* I reply: I'll bring donuts, Gatorade, and Cards Against Humanity. I tell the girls that the snacks are for them, so they don't get too drunk or hungover. But really I know myself too well, and I binge when I feel lonely. Its hard not to feel lonely, when you're the only sober one there. At the Party: Never Have I Ever reveals more than I ever thought it would. I might be the oldest, but I am by no means the most mature. Things I have never heard of, things I could have never thought of are things of which they speak. Two donuts are gone. Their alarms all go off at 10:00 for birth control. They take out their mini purse packs of 30 pills, no bigger than a credit card. I don't take birth control, because my periods are regular, and well: Depression+antidepressants+confusion of sexuality= no *** drive at all. I mean zip, zero, nothing. Leaving me to be the only ****** of the six girls here. Three donuts are gone. Hours ago though, I took my 300mg of Seroquel XR. I timed it just right. This time I won't fall asleep hours before everyone else 'Pong' requires drinking so I sit their and watch. Four donuts are gone Shots are taken. I pour more tea into my mug. Five Donuts are Gone Drunk face-timing old friends who have moved away results in much yelling, and her hanging up. I start a new group text where I talk only to myself. All Donuts are gone There is no wonder why alcohol and depression don't mix
