    It's been one of those days where everything seems to be wrong. It feels as if people are lining up just to get a swing at me. One after the other, someone is taking out their frustrations on me. And now isn't a good time for that to happen. Not that it's ever good for this to happen, but when I'm already on the edge, it's worse.

    I think I fell over. I'm just so frustrated and angry and tired of being everyone's whipping boy. Everyone has a complaint about something I did or didn't do. Or the way I've done it. I actually had an appointment this afternoon to see my therapist again. I could use it today. But circumstances that I couldn't control, even if I tried to, led me to have to cancel. Why? Why today of all days did this happen?

    I don't think I should I cancel. I need to go. But I can't because my real life has gotten in the way of it. I have to work and I can't get out of it. Because the only way I could get out of it would be to admit to the world that I'm out of my mind and barely hanging by a thread and can't function. Since this isn't an option, I have no choice. And it makes me really mad. So mad that I just want to scream or punch something.

    It's never a good day when all you can think of is, I hope all of this is over soon. Not just the day, but everything. It feels like there is just something out there conspiring against me, and that every time I get ahead of it, it knocks me back down again. Just when I think I've escaped it, it finds me again.

    I could feel it stalking me and I was aware of it's presence right over my shoulder. But I thought if I didn't look at it, it would go away. But then all these little things went horribly wrong and it just attacked me while I was down. Now I feel like I'm lying in a heap on the ground and everyone is just standing over me, taking turns kicking me in the stomach.

    I'm just so tired. Most people who overcome struggles in their life, have a moment of peace when they finally win the battle. They destroy the demon so it can never hurt them again. It's just a distant memory in the rear view mirror of life. But with others like me, the demon can never be destroyed. Every time you think you've killed it, it just resurrects itself and tries to come after you again.

    Just like at the end of every scary movie. Just when you think it's safe and the heroes have prevailed, the bad guy's eyes spring open and he stabs you through the heart before you even have a chance to realize what happened. That's how my life is. There is no peace. And what peace there is, is always short lived before you have to start running again. If you don't, the demon will eventually find you again.

    I'm just so tired of running. I want to rest. That's all I want. Just to rest.

    That totally sucks about having to skip therapy! Do you at least get to reschedule for tomorrow or sometime very soon?

    I hope you can find some rest in some form or another.

    Suggestion:  Read your previous blogs.  (Trust me, they're quiet inspirational - I've read them.)  Then see yourself through those eyes AGAIN.

    Try to remember that everybody has bad days. I know that's not helpful but it's true. I know that your bad days are harder for you to cope with though.

    But just remember that we all have those moments where we feel like we can't ever escape whatever it is that's thrown at us. But if you go home and try to relax and forget all the problems of the day, you might feel better.

    And if you're tired, rest. Take a nap. Go to bed early. Sleep can do wonders for your tired soul. Just because today sucked doesn't mean it has to stay that way.

    Tomorrow is a new day. And it might look a whole lot brighter. You might feel like you can't stop running, but you can hide for awhile until you get stronger. You'll be okay.

    No giving up.

    Infernal, I feel a lot calmer now. Going home and getting away from the people at work helped a lot. I see the doctor next Tuesday instead. And I'm going no matter what. Even if I have to call in sick. But hopefully by then I won't be feeling as bad anymore. Thank you.

    Grace, I do need to read those other blogs again. The good ones. I miss that guy who seemed to be so clear headed...

    Mr_Box, I think I will go to bed early. And maybe I'll have another interesting dream to give me some answers? Tomorrow is a new day. I hope it's better. I won't give up.

4 months ago, I was sexually assaulted by a cop in my home. He was arrested two weeks ago and he may have to serve time in jail. My life has suffered terribly ever since. My bad memories, from my childhood abuses, are replaying themselves again and again...
My ex father-in-law has brain cancer and I love him very much....
Basically I have the time, energy, and actually funds, to buy/make people presents and I have NO ONE to give them to. :(...
So I had a heart wrenching experience last night ... I hope he'll be OK....
