for the last month, stress has been building up quite a bit. stress with breaking up. stress with my ex [from 2 years ago]. stress with my dad calling me for the first time in 13 years. stress with my mom calling me for the first time in 1.5 years. stress with my brother. stress with school. stress with work. stress with seeing my mom for the first time in a year and ahalf. stress with my own expectations. stress of worry for my friend. stress of not being able to express my emotions the way i want to. stress on top of stress on top of stress.
i want to shut down. i need to shut down. i can’t shut down. i need to keep going.
i’m a ball of emotions, yet i feel numb.
i’ve only been 23 for a month.
is it going to be like this the whole year?
i don’t think i can handle anymore.
and yet i’m becoming numb.
at least i have my pillars. i love you guys.
thank you for always being here for me.
