the pH in my stomach has plummeted to an all time low. as a defense mechanism, my stomach clenches. 2. my jaw is extremely sore from grinding my teeth while i was sleeping (and having the regular nightmares.) 3. sometimes, my joints decide to act like they are eighty years old instead of twenty. 4. that's what i get for burying the acidity of the self loathing. 5. now i am a pinata except i'm hallow.
