Honest to God, I am so stupid. You'd think I'd know how it works after all these decades. Mattering is for others. Needing is for others. Asking is for others. Receiving is for others. Consideration is for others. Being given a damn about is for others.

This is how it is, and always has been in my real life.

But now I am exhausted. Can't do this anymore.
I understand Innerzone. The odd time that someone actually treats me like that, like I'm somewhat worth the effort? I don't even know what to do and tend to end up a crying mess because I feel SO BAD that I must have been so miserable that they actually felt like they had to do something about it and just want them to go away because I don't want to be ruining their day - I have utterly no idea how to actually handle someone treating me nice.



As to myself: the last few days you'd THINK I'd be happier as I've actually been out with friends... and I was. But yesterday was a bit of a downward plummet in my mood. Had a few triggering things involving some other people.. nothing major, but enough for me to just be crying at home. It's weird though, how much I'm noticing on my mood chart about my sleep hours. Good day = not much sleep. Sad day = loads of sleep. Last night I was out for 9 hours.

Today is possibly going to have a trigger though - my aunt is arriving in town with some of my stuff. Which is exciting, yay stuff! But also nerve-wracking as I haven't really seen her since I up and moved out of her apartment with no notice... so I am thinking that today I may ask a friend of mine if she could come over and hang out for the evening..
