I’m a happy hypomanic sociable loner. I isolate when I’m depressed, or I surround myself with strangers & acquaintances and get all manic. I feel like I will ruin the days of my close friends and family if I’m depressed around them. One friend of mine said I wasn’t “me” at all, and was quite alarmed. BUT I learned recently that some of my friends are really empathetic to my depressed state; my self-loathing, self-pitying, self-centered rants. They didn’t make me feel ashamed at all. They were very understanding. Sometimes it’s not as bad as you think; people still care about you and won’t abandon you even if you are sad. Also, having the blog is great therapy – not just for you, but for others who are in similar shoes.

Please don’t publish this if I sound like a huge sappy dork.

Here’s a silly song I like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXIzyquw-kc

It would actually be more disingenuous and attention seeking to not post anything at all. You’re a diarist. You share your diary with the world. Even the gnarly bits.
So keep it real.

Raymi,

I really love this post. The bullshitpolice can go fuck themselves. You are connecting with the universal truths in all of us. If that gets you attention so be it. It’s good to have that kind of attention.

I feel lonely a lot. I’m also a happy chick that everyone thinks has her shit together, which is such a joke. So I stare at the clouds and I cry because I just want a pair of arms around me.

Keep up the writing and keep it real. It brings us all together and THAT is more than most people do. Thank you for being you.

love
zigzag

There’s been some pretty depressing stuff going on lately…being sensitive, as you are, means you pick up on it. Anyone who doesn’t feel a bit depressed right now just isn’t paying attention.
“bullshitpolice” should be frying the bigger fish that are out there, could maybe do some real good in the world, instead of attacking you. Oh, sorry, I forgot…that would take courage, wouldn’t it?

You’re too dumb to be sad.

i think its not only important to get it off your chest but for other ppl to know and hear about another’s sadness. i know you hear it from many, but the way you push through your anxiety and your everyday has helped me a ton in the last couple years. your writing and how you keep it real.
i get angry and sick and jealous sometimes when ppl are too happy and positive. i cannot hang around ppl who pretend it does not exist. sadness is raw and when we feel it- dammit we shouldn’t be ashamed. especially when all you want to do is let it out and move on.
