i'm depressed...

sigh...i'm so overwhelmed by my life right now...my family's stress, fucking stupid Xmas shopping, final exams...i'm both completely stressed out, and totally depressed at the same time. i just want to crawl into bed and sleep until next semester.

i have a birthday coming up in a few weeks that i have no inclination to celebrate, and getting older depresses me even more.

i'm at the point where i just want to tell all of the people who count on me and need me to fuck off, and throw all of my responsibilities out the goddamn window. i'm sick and tired of taking care of other people. i'm sick and tired of not being taken care of.

merry fucking christmas indeed x(

3. yeah, i'm leaving for a day or two the second i'm done with those

and then, i'm leaving again on Xmas night, and then again for my birthday and New Year's. In fact, I plan on spending as little of my winter break at home as humanly possible. :D

4. I'm feeling the same emotions right now.

Uber stress. Depression. Anxiety.

My damn panic attacks decided to come back earlier this week. I've had one each day since. x(

On top of that, I have two papers I still need to do, a 1/2-hour presentation next Tuesday (I haven't even started that yet), plus finals!

Ugh! :banghead: :argh: x( :( :cry:

6. I haven't had any anti-anxiety meds all semester.

And I've been an insomniac for about a year now. :(

7. Just wait till you get out of college!

:hug:

I hear ya. I am about to go postal from not being taken care of and being the one who has to do *everything* and being responsible for *everyone*. Not to mention, I'm going to try to file for bankruptcy ASAP and that whole thing has been a huge, huge strain. Etc. etc. etc.

I'm sick of hearing about my own problems.

Chin up and all that, this is only a season. Try to give yourself some time when you can, just to veg and be still.
