the bags under my eyes are almost as oversized as the t-shirts i've been living in. upon waking, my choices consist of shakily making it through the day on cup after cup of coffee or putting myself through the misery of consciously keeping my eyelids pried open. nights are filled with blankly staring at up at the ceiling and anxiety thoughts. forgetting to eat has never been so easy, my waistline is shrinking daily. they say to take it one day at a time, but each new day is more back-breaking than the last.
