That I let old bad habits take over again.

I'm upset that my neighbor's guest's dog pooped in my front yard. When I contacted them they neither apologized nor picked the poop up, so my husband had to do it because he needed to mow the lawn before the weather got too hot. They are now on my shit list. No pun intended.

I just don't know what's wrong with me... whenever I try to offer people advice, I just make them uncomfortable. I haven't been the best cognitively. I can't even feel my head and I feel weak and exhausted, so whenever I try to offer someone a little sympathy I take a lot of time scanning over my words so I don't mess up.

I don't know why I have to be set aside like this... one person whose post I commented on, immediately they deleted. I've seen this happen on the same community twice. I know I didn't write anything bad. I didn't shame them for how they felt. I didn't make them feel like they were to blame for feeling so negative in life. And yet, to see that post deleted... even if it has nothing to do with me, my mind can't stop leaping to the strong idea that it was me who caused it.

It's nothing more than pathetic to get so emotional over the actions of others' online. These are Internet people, they don't know me, and I don't know them. But for this to happen on a mental health support app, where we are supposed to be helping each other and being supportive in the best way we can...

This isn't even the part that hurts more. My posts don't get replied to. And I know how hard it is for someone who is hurting themselves to offer any words of comfort, because they themselves don't hold much hope either. I don't demand for someone to offer me 100% of their time or else. I don't mind if they cannot think of anything to say in terms of advice. I don't mind. I just wish I didn't feel so isolated. Everyone else gets comments. And I'm left alone.

This is the most babyish thing I have ever written.

one thing I am feeling sad about today is that I currently feel really lonely and feel like all of the people I used to go to and tell my problems, have left my life by choice. Another thing I am sad about today is that I seem to not be getting along with my family like I should.

That I got my hopes in a place where they shouldn't have been, because it got me hurt in the process. I was finally starting to believe that I was enough, that I was wanted and that I was accepted for me. But turns out, I wasn't.

I spent some time today re-reading some poems that I wrote when I was grieving. A little down, but in a good way.

@TheStrenghLiesWithinYourSoul Thanks; that's a good way to look at it. I don't want to forget the people I've lost; I want to honor and cherish their memory.

@TheStrenghLiesWithinYourSoul

I posted one of my poems earlier today on a different thread in DepressionSupport: "Not a Bridge". It's pretty oblique, but it's about a stillborn child.

I'm really very uncertain about posting things I've written and published elsewhere -- I don't have any idea whether it's permitted under 7cups' privacy rules, let alone the best way to do it if it is permitted. I don't even know how to find out -- I looked in the FAQs and didn't find anything useful.
