I am honestly doing really poorly. I feel so uncomfortable with myself. I have a hard time understanding myself in relation to other people. I don’t experience friendships or attachment the way most people describe them. I don’t feel a pull toward others, and I can't bring myself to understand why. It makes me feel like something important didn’t form in me the way it should have.
I just feel so empty & unfulfilled. I'm not really emotional or sad, it's just as if there’s nothing in place where something is supposed to be. I don’t want friends, but I don't want to be the way I am. It’s a miserable position to be in, because I know what I should want, and I don’t. I just am quiet inside.
I dissociate the whole day unless I'm in philosophy class, because I love the topic & my professor. But it is so different from high school. I don't have any teachers to stay behind in class with, I just go home crying when it is unbearable. One girl asked me if I was okay today, and I started crying even harder.
I have been invisible my whole entire life. Everyone has always treated me like a germ, excluded me, used me, laughed at me. It really worked me up when she checked on me. I ended up hugging her, and I couldn't tell you why I chose to do so. Someone that was only in my life for a brief moment has already taken a toll on me. I just don't get it.
What is fun about having friends? What's fun about "hanging out"??? Sure, let's go to a loud & crowded place together, and look at the same things, and talk about nothing that matters. I don't even feel critical, I just feel wrong. I don't ever talk to anyone, I don't respond to anyone who shows interest in me. & what can I do to make up for my absence? Who would want to "hang out" with me? There's nothing rewarding about friendship.
When I try to talk about this, it always finds a way to go wrong. Everybody tends to take it personally, or assume it’s about them, and then I regret saying anything at all and I take it back. My therapist doesn't understand, my mother thinks it's because I'm autistic. I don't feel a desire & struggle to make friends. I feel absolutely nothing there.
My boyfriend has friends. My boyfriend is closer to people I meet than I am. It feels like everyone is leaving me behind, because I am so far behind. People notice that I am hollow inside & they just leave. It is fine. It doesn't really bothr me, but I don't want to feel so disconnected from his social circle. I just feel so hostile all the time. Why does everyone get to have things and I don't? Why don't I want what everyone else wants???
I just want to disappear. I don't want to go to school. I don't want to talk to anyone. I don't want to be looked at. I just want to melt into my bed until I can't be separated from it. I wish I could deactivate my accounts everywhere & cut everyone off and just fall off the planet. I want to be alone, and isolated. Why can't anyone relate? I feel like I'm crazy.
I’m writing this because I know there have to be others who feel this same sort of flatness or detachment and don’t know how to put it into words. I wish I felt lonely, but I just feel sick of myself. I feel uncomfortable with the way I am, and I am always striving to be someone else. Lol. The suffering persists but so do I. My only comfort is philosophy. I know I am real because I'm a conscious being. That's the reason why my being hasn't just slipped off this Earth & into nothingness yet. I wish I could have kept seeing my psychiatrist
This probably looks really funny with an anime girl right next to it hahaha oh I just realized that. hahaha
Update as of 10:27 PM: I deleted all my social accounts. I feel the same. Someone take me out of my misery
