I am content. Without warning i feel the bottom fall out and a rush of fear and sadness. I am most certain that in this moment i am not left wanting i was satisfied and happy moments ago.
I fear bipolar, almost like it is hunting me. I need this wash of irrational depression to find its way out of my head. Generally it is reflection on my children that stops me, or the sentimental moments I look back on with my wife. Ithen try to distance myself with my imagination forcing control away from my anxeitey. I am alone when i fail. Saddness mock me with reminders, my failure at out new life being inevitable, dissappointing my family , and carring the disapproval of my children.
My exwife furthering herslf from the intrest in the children being ours.
So much turmoil. I can barley breathe. I know logically i am embelishing these things, I am trying to destroy myself.
My Anxiety fades. I am alone.
I am alone.
I am alone and I am ok, I will not give up. i did not keep running. I walked away.
I am alone, and that will not stop me.
I have missed an entire episode of castle starring into the back of my palm rocking. I stop myself. All of it.
I didnt win. I have lost time again.
I wasnt alone. Butters needed me. He brought me home.
Woke me from wandering off in my own head again. from sleeping wide awake.
I hate myself, but I will not fear myself, or getting lost in my head anymore. I have to move on.
We own a trailer now. it is ours. We fixed it and when we pay the bills this month we will have succeeded. My plan will have worked. Our lives ARE better because i was in them.
And that is all I need.
I am needed, I can do better.
