Now let me tell YOU how much being 51-50'd twice within the period of the same week is... not fun. Especially with the psychiotic lady down the hall you think is speaking intelligently until you learn over closer starts making animal noises, and the ex-con in the room next to you, just after being restraited decides to piss everywhere as a way of sticking it to the man. Or who knows, maybe he really just had to take a piss at a very inconvenient time? In any case, it was not to my benefit, and I heard all the nurses laughing and gossiping, and I just wanted to scream DON'T YOU FUCKING REALIZE SOME OF US ARE HERE AGAINST OUR WILL AND WE DON'T WANT TO PUT WITH THE NOISE OF YOUR PETTY GOSSIP ANY MORE THAN THE FOUL MOUTHED MAN WHO JUST PISSED HIMSELF IN THE NEXT ROOM. But I didn't. Very rarely do I speak my true opinion. I mainly just observe others', and if we share one, GREAT, I can bring up a topic and hopefully have more than a one-sided conversation, and that topic may lead to another, and as I get a feel for their temprament, the way they will generally respond to things based upon the strength of the preferences as indicated through verbal response and even microexpression, I can poke at carrying the conversation to a slightly deeper level. This part is the one where I really start pulling things out of the other person's psych they didn't remember were there or were trying to forget, but I remember usually, these are a essential ingredient in the total unraveling of a person.
Identifying, trust, dysruptive sense of self-worth, empathy, fears, memories(personal experiences), preferences(all kinds), philosophic mindset(receptive, dejecting, comparative, compatible, reflective, Echoic in certain principles) beliefs, adherence to internet compass...
These things are what flavor what we observe in personality and observe in a "person"... But what really is the person? Holos = oneness
perhaps this is an equal amount of void as matter, or a certain amount of matter is leaving from the void, then when the cycle retracts, it will replace probably anti-matter residing on the other side of the void, or blackhole. Like some of those perpetual moving objects... the universe expanding and contracting could be just like that... meaning there may be other sides to black holes... How many other sides... how many factual universe exactly the same ordeal... a motion that only in appearance, ceases, begins, and continues... but never truly began in the first place.
I personally believe any type of order and linear time are illusions...
Time= distance x rate
Okay, besides time being an order we artificially impose on society, it does seen to reprent the rate void could be dislocated within a period of time, using different types of stardized speedometers, timed automatedly, and obstacles. The obstacle (and all of its components) that go through the change are void, and maybe void is even the tiniest substance to exist, and maybe seed of all things as perfect distruction of molecule when there's no place to move as it vibrates would cause an explosion, or even the perception of implosion in the long term, as gravity returns everything to its due place. But what is Gravity? It is a "force" ?

My head burns
fuck what everybody else says, I know the truth. all I do is hurt people. people look up to me, but for what? I'm so flawed, so horrible... all I do is fucking hurt people. And they try to act nice and suppress things because I'm so fragile, but I know my fate. I'll just end up alone, and in hell, and I'll stay there. why? because I condemn myself. I don't deserve love. I don't. I deserve pain. I deserve this, yet I'm so weak, I can't even take it. people think they're not good enough for me, well I'm not good enough for them. I'm not good enough for anything. and I can't take this pain. I can't... I can't fucking take it. I'm not strong, they were all wrong... so wrong... I'm a failure, and that's all I ever will be.

And when I finally understand
it is then that I will again awake to ignorance. When I am in total ignorance once more, it is then I will again awake to understanding.
Monday, March 14, 2011
ehhhh...
This is one of those moments where I really just sit and question how the hell I ended up in the position I did. Why? What is it that I feel I'm lacking that I need to keep seeking outside of myself? Why can't I just... accept the pain that's a part of living for me and get used to it? Why do I feel like that pain isn't worth living through, even for all of the people in my life, at times? Well soon enough I'll be bombarded by reasons, and I won't have anything to do with them besides dwell.
Bring on total sobriety.
Bring on total sobriety.

So many pent up emotions...
I used to have writing, but I don't even have that anymore... even to work these issues out in my mind systematically like I used to is such a painful process, I'd usually rather not bother... until it overwhelms me, then I have no choice. I'm not always sad, no, I know that... I'm not always depressed... but if I was always depressed, at least I could probably get a goddamned handle on the situation. Fuck this. It's not like I don't hold things in myself... I just... never talk about it. I can't talk about it, so nobody knows... Nobody knows how many times I have been standing just a hair from plummeting over the edge, nobody. How is it that fucking trauma from 4 years ago still haunts me? How does it still loops through my mind and manipulate my emotions, putting me in a state like I'm just experiencing it in that exact moment? Still, the only way out is through... if there is even an out. Why should I care? This is a spiritual struggle, it always has been, whether I live or die or not is irrelevant if I won't reach a resolve. And I become so self-absorbed, too... what should matter? Aren't other people just a continuation of the self in some sense? So why do I direct my attention towards one part, when there's even still a bigger picture? I'm sick of standing on the edge of a breakdown, I just want to breakdown already, to get it out of my system. One day I will find an area where I am completely alone and finally let out this scream I've been saving for years... one day.

How do things go so wrong so fast?
I'm so sick of misunderstandings tearing me apart... destroying friendships, but this time it seems different. This time, love will overcome. I have faith in her.
Sunday, January 16, 2011
It seems to me...
...like we're all looking for the same thing. That thing we are looking for, it isn't a physical object, not something with a particular size, but a concept. That concept may be peace, or contentment.
Even if somebody was to say in their lifetime, they wish only to find love, isn't it the peace they will have received after achieving their goal what they were really striving for... a type of closure? A relief from a feeling of lack? Likewise, if somebody said that their lifetime goal was to get $1,000,000, wouldn't they be seeking that $1,000,000 in order to feel validated or secure, or to again fill some sort of perceived deficiency? We are constantly striving to discover a means the would help us to achieve our end, but after we achieve that goal, we simply create a new one, and we relentlessly begin pursuing closure in the exact same fashion as we had, not recognizing the pointlessness in seeking some ideal that could never realistically be maintained, but we sure do keep ourselves busy. Maybe when we acknowledge a means as an end in of itself, we'll really have peace. Maybe when we accept we will always be seeking in the state we do unless we end our life yet persist anyway, we can fully own our existence, accept in any given moment we only continue to exist because we consciously choose to, and allow that understanding to empower us. It's like "Meno's Paradox" in the dialogue by Socrates. We all seek to be virtuous in our actions, but being virtuous means attempting to bring ourselves to our ideal state through whatever means it takes. Some people think this means carpetting the world, and people who invest the future of their happiness or ideal state on a situation they do not have control over are bound to end up in more agony when they discover despite trying their hardest, they cannot force everybody else to conform to their inner visions. Some want peace, and want to find a way to end war and conflict, but for there to be a greater peace, those conflicts must exist, otherwise you end up with an oppressive environment with even greater conflict brewing beneath the surface, ready to be unleashed and hurt a lot of people.
But we opt. for quick fixes even if they aren't permanent. It's just like how people self-medicate through periods of depression instead of learning to tolerate them in a normal state of consciousness... Yes, you may escape the problem temporarily, but when you return to that state, you're just going to be in the same position as you were before you self-medicated unless you learn new coping skills. Even if you learn new coping skills, unless you practice them, they will remain ineffective. I think that if you push through a phase of depression and tolerate it, don't do something stupid during it, the memory sticks with you so the next time you're depressed to the same extent, you can remember that you don't have to act because you had survived that state of mind before without doing so, therefore you have the capacity to tolerate at least that. But then does mood/energy level affect your capacity while you're experiencing differences in level, or does your compacity remain the same regardless of mood/energy, with both being nothing more than perception? The former seems more logical, but if it were the case, the only thing a person could really be responsible for would be trying their best to remain, and only they could know whether they did or not, and depending on the person, they may not be bothered if they didn't meet other peoples' standards of virtuous behavior. As they shouldn't be. A person's understanding of what is virtuous for themself is not virtuous for another person because they are different people with different needs. People have good intentions, but because of their ignorance, they often cause more damage to others than do they heal them. When you focus too much on other peoples' needs all of the time neglecting your own, it's difficult to distinguish when you're acknowledging a person's legitimate need or projecting your own needs or desires onto them. "The Good" is the product of virtuous behavior, and I believe it varies from individual to individual.
For myself, just what is it?
I guess the ability to live and function in a way that is more desirable than being dead. I would ask myself, "What's the point of living if you'd rather be dead." and I think the answer is that I'm waiting for something greater, hoping there is something better than what I know, and that my understanding may be wrong (it constantly shifts).
There is no guarantee that I am actually advancing forward when I will reach a conclusion time and again then not be able to be secure about it, because I forget just how I had arrived at the conclusion I did logically, and I doubt that I didn't make a mistake somewhere alone the way. I know if I finally did find my answer, whatever it is, I'd probably just start all over again, because I despise boredom. Whenever I beat a video game and accomplish a challenge, I do it again to achieve the same goal more efficiently. Part of me even realizes I have already found the answer many times and I keep forgetting it because of this implied need to keep moving, but as I said on my status on facebook:
The only way out is through. I must try to believe every step I take is positive, working towards something greater, even though it feels like I have no choice but to return to square one over & over, it's just a lie, I'm moving fowards, & I'm becoming stronger. I'm closer to the truth that was always right in front of me;all the answers lie within & the best way to not forget is to never let it leave your mind.
...and as that the lyrics of "Chasing You" by Nural said:
"Everlasting yet reaching the end, could you define this?
'Cause I know that I won't be relieved with closure, closure
Closure that never came, never will, I can't deny this
Though denial is all that could bring you closer"
I never stop and go back to reread the things I have already written, too. Maybe I'm afraid of being lost in the memory... the boundaries between memory, dream, and reality don't seem so stable, afterall.
I'm going to have to learn to convince myself that the reason I live is not just because I don't have the energy to kill myself, because it's not.
Tomorrow I will make one document of things people have said that inspired me and made me feel like my life actually has meaning and value, and that I, as an individual might have worth. I'll meditate on their words when I'm depressed and use it as a mantra to counter the inevitable negative.
Bah, I should sleep.

Here we go again...
It seems like the only reason I write or blog lately is to vent negativity... Well, whatever. I do what I have to, I guess....
I hate this feeling. I care a lot about people, but I'm just an extra... I pour my heart into being there for them, and they tell me that they care, but then when other people talk to them, maybe more interesting people, when they don't need me, they forget about me completely.
why
why do I smile
when I feel like dying?
that song by Keane captured the question so perfectly
I don't understand... I still don't
why I could be thinking about suicide, then smile and laugh, and even convince myself for a little while that I'm happy
but then when I'm alone
there's no distraction
there's no means of denying it
there's just me and the truth
I doubt anything anyone could say could make me feel less lonely

High-risk
I'm going to be undergoing a project that may be high-risk... I got involved with my new boyfriend without really knowing him that well, but with the intention of wanting to get to know him better, and I'm starting to realize that may have been a stupid move. As he communicates me, I can sense a dangerous energy, and anger churning beneath the surface, and it seems on the edge of being unleashed... He is angry when I don't talk to him all through the night after I tell him I'm sick, and I'm tired. He claims to care about me more than he does himself, but he contradicts himself:
12:46amI trust you not to do anything too reckless
12:46amwhat do you mean too reckless?
12:46ambecause
I know you care about me, and you wouldn't want to hurt me,
and if you did something to seriously hurt yourself, you
know you would hurt me
like something that would really, relaly hurt you
*really
12:47ambut "I" dont matter to me. You Matter to
me12:47amdoes what matters to me matter to you?
12:50amrepeat
that....through text though. im about to sign off and play
cod...... DONT TAKE ANY COUGH MEDICINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
did you get that?12:50amyes12:51amok i had to sign out then
sign back on
you matter more to me than i matter to me... does that make
sense?
12:51ambut
if what matters to me matters to you, and you matter to me,
you should matter to you
I am kind of out of it, admittedly. I couldn't sleep last
night...
12:53amgrrrr.... just text me then.....
~~~
I text him, "I was just thinking.. Your anger seems to be causing a lot of your troubles.. Would you like to learn to control it better?"
He says, "Look, I was just kidding about the grr thing."
I say, "I don't mean about that.. I mean about why you're going to court..."
"You sound like my therapist."
"... Do you think your anger is even really an issue?"
"Stop."
"Sorry :( i didn't mean to hurt you"
"You didnt. Just chill out. You're getting too personal. I just smoked a bowl and discussing all that would definitely kill it."
Maybe a sane person would get out now.
~~~
...
I also know he has a tendency to lie. He was dishonest to me about the fact he was going to court, he was dishonest to me about why he was sick(later telling me the truth, prolly for me to put more trust in him), and there are probably a lot more things he is dishonest with me about. He is very controlling, and he is scared that I may leave him, and that is what I fear may be the greatest risk. He may eventually resort to whatever means he can manage to posess me. He tells me what he thinks I want to hear, revealing some personal truths along the way, growing more attached to me with every truth he divulges, and subsequently feeling a greater need to control me to make sure I, his source of comfort, do not leave him. He is afraid if I know how he really is, I won't want to be involved with him... Somehow I need to communicate to him that it isn't true, but that he needs to respect my boundaries. This will be a challenge and instigate a necessary personal growth in myself that I've been needing for awhile... to become more assertive. If I don't start to stand up for myself, things will end badly and I know it. Luckily I am at least aided with my wit an intuition... and I do believe I can heal him, but I can definitely feel how great of a challenge this will be...
First thing's first, I need to discover if he actually has the desire to change. His anger was what got him into trouble, and if he feels remorse about it, he should want to change. If he feels no remorse, he will say he is content with how he is and that it isn't an issue, and if that is the case, I need to tread even more carefully, because there is a distinct possibility he has a personality disorder. If not borderline, anti-social. If he realizes how much I actually know, that may also cause him to feel a greater need to control me to regain the upperhand, so I have to play dumb to a certain extent to throw off his suspicions and anxieties... But because I care about him, I will take a risk and try to put an end to his self-defeating behaviors through helping him understand what his behavior implies. I know he's smarter than he seems. I know he realizes I'm smart. I know he doesn't realize how smart I am. I'm not so sure myself how smart he is, but I am very wary now.
As for me, is this compulsion to help people because I'm codependent and I have a need to be needed? Not exactly. I am not selfless. I also help people to distract myself from my own pain that I have limited control over, and even because it makes me happy to see others happy because I empathize with them. I'm not a saint, I'm not a hero, I'm nothing close. I'm a regular humanbeing just the same as any of you out there, but I realize the ways I have a power to make a difference, I know the ways I can do it, and I know which difference would best benefit the other based upon their preferences, and therefore maximize my own benefit, because rarely do I feel my own happiness when I'm in the middle of depression. I have to take an alternative approach if I want to be proactive. I'm also trying different things to directly address my problem, but until I find a permanent fix, I'll work with the resources I have to make my life a little more bearable.
I've heard love is accepting a person as they are without feeling compelled to change them, so maybe what I feel for him isn't love. How could I love somebody who claims to care about me, but whose actions reflect solely with their own self-interest? I need to figure out whether he is being deliberately deceptive, or if he truly doesn't realize what it means to care about somebody...

12:46amI trust you not to do anything too reckless
12:46amwhat do you mean too reckless?
12:46ambecause
I know you care about me, and you wouldn't want to hurt me,
and if you did something to seriously hurt yourself, you
know you would hurt me
like something that would really, relaly hurt you
*really
12:47ambut "I" dont matter to me. You Matter to
me12:47amdoes what matters to me matter to you?
12:50amrepeat
that....through text though. im about to sign off and play
cod...... DONT TAKE ANY COUGH MEDICINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
did you get that?12:50amyes12:51amok i had to sign out then
sign back on
you matter more to me than i matter to me... does that make
sense?
12:51ambut
if what matters to me matters to you, and you matter to me,
you should matter to you
I am kind of out of it, admittedly. I couldn't sleep last
night...
12:53amgrrrr.... just text me then.....
~~~
I text him, "I was just thinking.. Your anger seems to be causing a lot of your troubles.. Would you like to learn to control it better?"
He says, "Look, I was just kidding about the grr thing."
I say, "I don't mean about that.. I mean about why you're going to court..."
"You sound like my therapist."
"... Do you think your anger is even really an issue?"
"Stop."
"Sorry :( i didn't mean to hurt you"
"You didnt. Just chill out. You're getting too personal. I just smoked a bowl and discussing all that would definitely kill it."
Maybe a sane person would get out now.
~~~
...
I also know he has a tendency to lie. He was dishonest to me about the fact he was going to court, he was dishonest to me about why he was sick(later telling me the truth, prolly for me to put more trust in him), and there are probably a lot more things he is dishonest with me about. He is very controlling, and he is scared that I may leave him, and that is what I fear may be the greatest risk. He may eventually resort to whatever means he can manage to posess me. He tells me what he thinks I want to hear, revealing some personal truths along the way, growing more attached to me with every truth he divulges, and subsequently feeling a greater need to control me to make sure I, his source of comfort, do not leave him. He is afraid if I know how he really is, I won't want to be involved with him... Somehow I need to communicate to him that it isn't true, but that he needs to respect my boundaries.

To be honest...
The fact that my conceptual understanding is usually alligned with truth scares the HELL out of me. Because I have this awareness that nothing remains... so I fear growing attached... be it to people, to ideas, to this state of consciosness, to the moment.. though the moment is probably the closest we could come to a constant... the never ending, always changing moment... I dunno. It makes me feel so alone sometimes.. so alone. But we're truly, in essence, all the same.. I can't let myself forget that. When consciousness fades, we will once again become one.. only to reawaken to our collective ignorance that we may neither will, nor observe.... The truth doesn't necessary have reason.. and some things we can't understand... yet it saddens me we always believe the argument that makes the most sense, I mean.... sometimes the truth really doesn't make sense. Consciously I know there's nothing to fear... but my ego won't permit that. Damn ego. Why won't you conform to my understanding? Oh yeah, because it's not beneficial to your existence and truth is a menace to you.... Oh well.
