Hi me, it's me again


I like that nobody cares to read these. I mean if people did, cool, but it's nice to just talk to myself.

Anyways, I can't sleep. I thought I fixed it, but every day gets harder. I just need a clean reset. I find myself back on here whenever it happens, I think that listening to people can give me solace. Sometimes it does, other nights it makes me feel worse.

But I will take these nights, alert on the couch in a headband, then some of the nights I've had before. I don't shake, or cry, or break things. I just don't sleep. It makes me honest and direct, traits that I've never really had.

Some nights I might sleep an hour or two, but those are even worse. I do wake up angry and frustrated. I can't stand it.

But tonight is alright. It's been a roller coaster, I've felt a lot of different ways. But even feeling bad is better than feeling nothing.


Until next time,

Ari
