Regret.

Have you ever gotten in a fight with someone because you told them what was bothering you and instead of them apologizing they find a way to make you feel bad about it so you are left regretting even saying anything?

#"an apology without changed behavior is just manipulation...

I'm Stuck.

Stuck between overemotional and emotionless at the same time.

What my mental illness can look like:

-hibernating in bed
-eating all the time or not at all
- being emotionally distant
-isolating myself to "protect" others
-frequent crying & meltdowns
-believing that I am a burden
-canceling plans at the last minute
-mood swings that last hours or days
-outbursts over something others would consider "small"

#please be patient and try to understand, not judge, we're doing the best we can.

The damage I've done.

I ruined so many things (for myself and those around me) that could've been amazing because I was sad.

Slowly learning that sometimes you have to make peace with the fact that you are the villain in someone else's story even if you thought you were doing the right thing. You don't get to tell them how to narrate their experience....
