Good Morning, how are you doing?
So I’m going to do stream of consciousness. Well, attempt to..with my acrylic nails the best way I can. (Oh boy..)
This morning I woke up with regret. I was talking to someone I really care about and I kind of just cut him off. Pouted you could say. The reason being was because I wanted him to tell me that we were dating. I’m insecure in that way, I want someone and them to be mine. Like they’re my property and i don’t want anyone to take them away from me. Maybe this is because of my past. Maybe it’s because how i was raised. Maybe I want to live that picture perfect life...I want that special someone and know that they won’t leave me. I wanna say it’s wrong, but is it? maybe some parts of it yes. The parts where I want them to be mine and only mine..Fuck idk. The last relationship i was in I was so insecure. I’ll admit that.
Hold on I have to change the song so i can focus better
I feel okay with being alone but that’s lonely. You know what I mean? God look at me. Just complaining. I guess on the upside I can do what I want when I’m alone. But that consists of sleeping masturbating eating listening to music and walking. Life should be more eventful than that. When i have something funny or interesting to say i want to share that with someone. Is that selfish? idk...This guy though has shown me that men aren’t bad. That they aren’t just fuck bois and yes i wrote bois that way. You know fuck boys has to be written that way or else you don’t get the full umf of it you know?
I can see myself with him for a long time. Granted i don’t know what the future holds. And I could just be infatuated with him..but I can be myself around him. and he actually digs it. I’m not some slut hoe that will do anything that a guy tells me to do. That’s not love. that’s lust..that’s bordem..
I’m sad writing this because it just makes me think of where i came from. And I’m not there anymore. I’m sober and healthy and I treat him poorly when i get reminded of things from my past. He’s not my past and I have to remember that.
Hi, my name is ______, and I am here to blog because I can’t seem to stay sober.
My name is not important. Nor my past. What matters is my present and future. I am here because I can’t stay sober. I need an outlet to write. And I am tired of people not understanding. I am tired of losing people. After giving the last 3 years of my life to other people. 2015 to my brother who died in a drunk driving accident. 2016-2017 to a narcissist who drunkenly raped me, and someone I once called a friend, this year... 2018 is MINE.
That Narcissist I mentioned? Don’t worry, the drunk me decided to pull a stunt to end things once and for all this past Wednesday, so he’s out of the picture. Never have I ever been in such an abusive friendship. Though in a sick way I miss him.... never again.
I have been trying to find a reason to keep going. To believe I am worth it. To feel some sort of spark of life again. After losing 2 friends in my life this past week, I am bulletproof. But also grieving.
Reach out if you wish.

Sobriety Day 118
I haven’t blogged in quite some time.
I could say a lot, but I’m not saying much at all really. I’ve gotten to 118 days and damnit, that’s amazing.
I’m trying to stay positive, and be happy. Eventually, I will find it on this journey.
Sobriety Day 90
I made it to 90 days sober. 3 months of sobriety. 3 months of keeping my emotions in check without the help of drugs. 3 months of facing my monsters alone. 3 months. 90 days. 2,160 hours. 129,600 minutes. 7,776,000 seconds. I've made it.
Sobriety Day 89
I've released all the energies of who you are to me, and let them go. The moon is bright, and I have thrived in it. My future is just as bright; and tonight, I shine.
Sobriety Day 64
Today I had a bad BPD flare up. I had to talk myself down from self harm and thoughts of suicide, and I succeeded. The thoughts tried to creep in, and they did, in fact, come in and out; but overall, I won the fight today. It doesn't feel like it. But it doesn't feel like I lost either. For once, I won. I am so proud of myself. I felt I wasn't succeeding, but actually I did. I didn't succumb to the thoughts of self hatred and loathing, and I didn't allow the thoughts and desires of self harm to take over me. I didn't hurt myself, and I didn't allow myself to feel like I wanted to kill my self. Today, I won.
