I'm totally having an emo moment. Funny how I only update journals when it's a: incredibly random, b: incredibly exciting or c: incredibly depressing.
I guess I just need someone to talk to, and there's no one around so I might as well talk to myself, eh?
Let's try to do this methodically. Angela, Chris, Moving, Work, Friends, and Myself.
Angela: She's got a lot of stuff going on lately. I can't cheer her up. The things going on in her life are things I can't solve with a joke. I want her to be happy. That's all I've ever wanted for her. It feels strange being so happy myself and knowing she's not. I wish I could go further into detail about things, but considering it's not my place to post her business on the internet.. I can't. I just feel incredibly sad that I can't help her.
Chris: I'm entirely too in love with her. This is not a BAD THING, at all.. It's just I need her. Desperately. Being apart from her is killing me. I go through withdrawals when I don't talk to her for any length of time, and now that I've met her.. I'm constantly missing her touch. Not just in a sexual or romantic way.. I feel like part of me is missing. I belong with her. I usually hate being on the phone with people when they're talking to friends, but it's such a comfort just to hear her voice. I give up sleep just to listen in on the conversations she's having with her friends. (She has a bluetooth headset, by the way.. and sometimes I'll call her and just listen in on what's going on.) I just want to be able to sleep with her next to me, or cuddle up on the couch next to her while watching the lamest movie in the world.. I just want to be with her, you know? Things just really don't feel right when I'm not.
Moving: I'm moving to Alabama. I am, and I'm downright terrified. I've never wanted to leave "home" before. Slidell is all I've known... but it's starting to feel more and more just like the city/place I'm in. I feel more at home with Chris than I do in my own bedroom. I don't want to sleep in my bed, because she's not in it. I'm starting to distance myself from this place, and it's going to just get harder and harder until I DO move. Originally, I had planned on not moving until after the holidays... some time around my birthday. I'm not sure if I'll make it that long now. My need to be with her outweighs my fears and anxieties about leaving here.
Work: I'm running three departments, by myself. I'm not good enough for it. I'm not. I fear getting fired every day, for every little screw up. I go to my boss/co-workers and ask their opinions on things that are ultimately MY decision. Now, I know I'm going to be quitting and moving.. probably sooner than later, but I'm still horrified at the idea that I'm not cutting it. I'm also terrified about getting a new job. I'm comfortable with Chris's apartment, and all.. but getting a new job? That's a completely different story. I am fucking terrified.
Friends: What friends? I don't mean this in an emo way. Really.. but besides Angela, I've all but lost contact with all of my "best" friends. My top 8 is full of people who are basically strangers to me now. (Besides Chris and Angela...) I haven't had a longer-than-10-minute conversation with any one of them in ages. It makes me sad.
Myself: I wish I knew why I was so... abnormal. I know it pisses people off when I say that, but I just wish I didn't have my "social quirks." My stupid anxieties stop me from living a normal life. I'm terrified of feeling trapped in any situation, and my mind goes straight to worst case scenario mode automatically. I stop myself from going a lot of places, or even opening myself up to having "in real life" friends because I'm so scared of me having some stupid anxiety attack, or shitting all over myself. I know I'm not the only person in the world who has problems like these.. but "normal" people can just get up and go to Wal-Mart at any time. There are times when I CAN'T. I just cannot go. Being depressed was better than this.. I just didn't care what I did. It wasn't that I wanted to and I physically felt like I COULDN'T. You know? I'm so afraid that I'm just this big fuck up, and I'll go emo sometimes and wonder why people even put up with me as an acquaintance. I know talking so down about myself just hurts/annoys the ones I really care about.. but I just wish I could be better.
I guess my emofest is over. Well, at least talking about it is. I could go a lot more into depth about everything.. but I'll probably go curl up in a little ball somewhere and cry my eyes out instead.
