Depersonalisation: Rambling #18
21st April 2022, 21:29
I woke up this morning feeling incredibly weird. When I climbed out of bed, my feet were not my own. They seemed so far away from me. When I looked at my hands, they looked like hands I had never seen before. I tried to use the bathroom, but I felt like I was driving a car. I was inside my skull and watching the world around me on a movie screen. Everything was out of place and foreign. I didnāt know who I was or what I was doing. Strangely, I felt like I was floating. People call this depersonalisation. I guess that is what I was feeling, but itās the strongest Iāve ever felt it. I truly didnāt feel like I was attached to my body. I felt robotic, like a sim being controlled in-game. It was nauseating. My problem is, though, is why does this happen? It has to happen for a reason. Am I having a moment of clarity? A blip in the system? Am I experiencing who I truly am? Was this body ever really mine? Or was this body given to me? I donāt remember becoming who I am today. I just arrived. Who am I?

Annoying: Rambling #13
19th April 2022, 00:23
Do you know what is super annoying? The fact that I cannot feel joy for another person. It is so irritating to me. All these people keep telling me about their wonderful days, that theyāre excited for something, or that they have accomplished something. Of course, Iām good at feigning interest and happiness, Iāve done that my entire life, but I couldnāt care less about what theyāre going through. Donāt get me wrong, I prefer it when theyāre happy than sad because when theyāre sad theyāre more difficult to manipulate, but, god, they are so annoying. I donāt understand how somebody can be happy when their superior feels nothing at all. Like, Iām here, as cold as a damn ice cube (metaphorically, although my feet are pretty cold right now), and they have the audacity to shit out sunshine and rainbows. Screw the ābut the warmth will melt your iceā bullshit. No it doesnāt. All the warmth ever does is give me sunburn. Iām repulsed by these middle class snobs. They havenāt worked or suffered a day in their life and it shows. One girl Iām friends with likes to say that she was raised in poverty like me, but she moved away from her poverty house when she was three. We donāt have memories from before weāre five. She just wants to relate to me. Nobody can stand being perfect nowadays. The internet has convinced us that we gain validity through oppression. Be gay. Be trans. Be black. Be a woman. Be disabled. If youāre anything else, youāre a foul, disgusting human being. Itās cool and quirky to be different nowadays, but it undermines everything that the people in the aforementioned categories actually go through. Like, take being transgender for instance. Anybody who says you donāt need gender dysphoria to be transgender should quite literally be castrated and thrown down a well to rot. Yes, Iām saying this on Tumblr, the birthplace of a thousand genders. Iām not a snowflake, and Iām not scared of some retarded social justice warrior (yes, I can use the word retarded, Iām autistic). I was diagnosed with transgenderism about five years ago. Let me say that again. DIAGNOSED. Not identifying with your birth gender is a mental illness. It is debilitating. Donāt get me wrong, I have no idea if I still want to transition, I donāt know if I can deal with the stigma of being transgender because imbeciles like those snowflakes have made my disorder into a laughingstock. Anyway, I digress. It would be nice if I was able to feel somebody elseās happiness. Maybe it would give me happiness for once. Iām tired of feeling only negative emotions. Some days I donāt feel an emotion at all. The numbness overwhelms me sometimes. I worry that those days I might snap and do something I could regret, something that could ruin my life, my future, my prospects. Iāve fantasied about a lot of controversial things: raping somebody, killing somebody, torturing children, setting buildings on fire, kidnapping multiple people, etc. It gives me a rush of adrenaline when I think of these things. I wonāt do them, Iām too stubborn and I want to finish my University degree without becoming a serial killer, but if everything goes tits up, theyāll always be something out there for me to do. If only I had a lover who was as fucked up as me to do it with.

I want to destroy everything. I want to ruin my life, smash glass bottles agaisnt walls, run away into the night and get in trouble, scream and yell at the top of my lungs, get into fist fights, and stand up for myself. I want to be so so angry and loud about how awful I feel that everyone realizes that I was never okay, and I was never going to be okay, and that they left me behind to suffer. But I'm too tired. I'm too tired to move, to think. I just want to lay in bed all day and ignore the world. I just slap on a neutral face and do as I'm told. I wish I could be so angry about how sick I've become, but instead I keep quietly to myself, and live another miserable tired day.
maybe all the signs were there-
maybe i just refused to see them.
after all, red flags just look like flags when you see them through rose colored glasses.
-why did i believe you when you said you'd never hurt me? c.r.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Yet Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā I still want some kind of contact. Yet I am the one who canāt let go Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā āinto complete silence, Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā which seems so unthinkable. What keeps me? Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Is it devotion or addiction? Is it the need for Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā intimacy, or the proof that I can survive Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā some kind of violence?
