Rehab Diary Day 6: Friday November 13, 2020 TW: Self Harm, Suicide, Anxiety, Depression

-
I want to be like Hina. Bring the sunshine to everyone. I want to be a light in the dark times. I was excited to watch, "Weathering With You" last night. Please watch it if you haven't seen it. There is even a throwback to, "Your Name."

I had a pretty bad night terror last night which is weird since the medicine I am on is for night terrors. It shook me and I wanted to reach out to my friend to help calm me down but I didn't want to bother him. I feel like I am just being a burden on everyone. I feel very empty and alone. It's no one's fault but mine. I've thought about disappearing. Just letting everyone go so no one has to deal with me anymore. I would miss everyone but I feel like I would be doing everyone a favour.

Two days. I get to go back to my life in two days. I am excited and very scared. I want to see my kid and play video games. I know I will be streaming Sunday night as long as everything goes well. I have a very strong need to click on heads in CSGO and play some Among Us with my Weebs. I just hope that my friends still want to be my friends after all of this.

Why did you delete Discord and Twitter?

When you're in rehab, they encourage you to find your triggers. In a more restricted rehab they take your phone away so you can concentrate on getting better. Twitter is a trigger for me as is discord. So I deleted them so I can concentrate. I kept instagram because it's just pics and I don't get upset at insta. I follow a lot of tourism, anime, and photography accounts that calm me down. On Twitter everyone is either angry or depressed. Discord is a distraction, not too bad of a Twitter is I avoid certain servers. 

The people I was okay with talking to could reach my through my phone number. I love all of my friends. I just don't feel like talking to all of them right now. I'm trying to concentrate on getting better.

Today has been a really bad day. It's like a wall of sadness hit me all of the sudden. I've been in my head a lot today. All I want to do is hurt myself. 

I am a little scared today. Thinking about going home terrifies me. Nothing has changed at home. Everything is waiting for me when I go back there. I am afraid I will go home and it will be like last time. I will just fall a part. I don't have anyone physical at home other than my son. I can't put that on him. I don't have a person that can just hold me and keep me together. I have someone I love who I've tried to force to be that for me and that is not okay. I'm coming to the realization that he may just be there because he is afraid of being responsible for me killing myself. 

I hate that. I hate that anyone would stay with me because of that. It makes me feel like a horrible person. I'm still having some really bad thoughts but I'm not telling anyone those thoughts because I want to go home. I don't want to die anymore. I don't know how to explain it. How do you say to someone, "I feel like hurting myself but I don't want to die." 

How does it make sense that I have all this guilt, shame, pain, and all the bad feelings going on that I feel like I need to be punished for it. I'm a bad friend, I need to hurt myself. I'm being too needy, I need to hurt myself. I love someone who will never love me back, I need to hurt myself. It's not normal and I know that. I've been learning coping skills but I'm scared I will crave what I am used to doing for pain. 

I want to go to my room, pull the covers over my head and cry. I feel very alone in this world right now.

The long story of my weight gain I was not an overweight child. I was always healthy. I grew up in the 80's in Appalachia. If the sun was shining we were not allowed to be indoors. The meadows, forrest, and trees were our playground. We had the whole country side to explore. I remember having this big weeping willow that was conveniently placed at the top of the hill. We would swing for hours on the vine like branches, until our Mother would yell at us to stop. We stayed in the trees. Seeing who could climb the highest pine. We made forts in the woods. Living in the mountains was honestly some of the happiest memories of my life. We moved to the city when I was 11. It was definitely a change. We were living on a hill of family members and had tons of cousins to play with. We would play all of the

YouTube is killing Eugenia Cooney

This picture of Eugenia Cooney is from 2012 according to a Facebook page. YouTube is killing Eugenia Cooney. They are aware of her videos and continue to give her a platform. Enough is enough. They need to be held responsible for enabling her. Her videos have been reported by so many concerned viewers and nothing is ever done. When will it end? When she's dead?  Eugenia Cooney looking healthy and smiling in Shane Dawson's documentary, "The return of Eugenia Cooney".   I first learned about Eugenia Cooney on July 19, 2019 by watching a Shane Dawson documentary titled, "The return of Eugenia Cooney". You can watch that video here: https://youtu.be/IoYWO03b71M I was immediately drawn to Eugenia. She seemed like an innocent child locked into a young woman's body. Her story was interesting to me as someone who had an eating disorder off and on throughout school. I saw a sadness in her eyes and I thought, she must be protected at all co

I bought and paid for the products below. Living with Narcolepsy is difficult. Most of us are scouring the internet looking for anything that will help us feel more awake or to decrease the side effects of our medications.  The supplement industry is not FDA regulated. There are not enough studies on supplements. I will always be open and honest with my readers and never promote anything that I would not personally use. This post will be about the supplements that I use every day, why I use them, and at the bottom of this post is the research I found. Always do your own research and have a discussion with your Physician and Pharmacist before starting a new supplement regimen. Supplements can interact with your current medications, thin your blood, or have other adverse reactions. Please be wary of sup
