I’ve had a really low couple a of weeks. In several relationships I’ve felt the need to be there for people who can’t/won’t be there for me. I have a close friendship falling apart. My best friends are thousands of miles away. I feel de-legitimized as a young, single person who is actually not that young anymore and has been single forever. Feeling perennially unattractive the longer this keeps up. 

My family is not close. We are all walking around with clouds over our heads. My brother is in rehab. I go visit ever other week. At first, I blamed him for substance abuse problems that wrecked parts of our family and hurt my parents. But now I have no blame left in my being. I just keep absorbing it. It’s all over my face at work. The kids probably look at me like I’m such a mess.

I spend too much time alone. The street noise in the valley is driving me insane. I want kids. I want to bolt. I don’t want any other thing. Get away from me.

I want a home inside a community. LA is fucking brutal this year.

Upon finding out they're more of a certain kind of "smart" than another, some students don't believe they have the ability to be successful in other areas. It's crucial to emphasize that they can strengthen themselves in any area with effort and practice.
