23. My Losses

I feel aimless. I feel like I don’t know where I am or what is in my house where.

Judgemental. Careless.

It’s like my brain is not just lagging the fog feels like it is empty.

I feel lost in my own head.

Things keep slipping through the crack.

Loosing a wallet.

Wrong appointment times.

Memory loss of what book I was reading during Christmas.

If someone found my wallet they can have it I just want my license. I can’t renew online because it is almost expired. And I have to go back to CA in person to get a new one. My brain can’t navigate the logistics needed.

Trying to figure out how to move Claire to HI. Finances attached to flights. We need to cut back, I need a job.

Loss of appetite.

My birthday is next week and all I can see it the money we are loosing and that I am not worth it.

I catch myself staring blankly into nothingness. Maybe if I don’t blink some of my thoughts will come back. Maybe if I stay still enough I could feel like myself again.

Heaviness.

My body feels bloated. Like I am trying to move forward but there are restraints creating tension from behind and the dexterity in my feet is replaced with clumsiness.

I can’t remember the question Dr. Halpert wanted me to write about after leaving…

We ended talking about … there was anger, sadness, disgust, vulnerability… I don’t remember the substance.

Maybe there is a piece of me that feels this is karma getting me. Because of all the nasty things I shared out loud in therapy, put out into the world, gave life to, something had to happen to humble me. Remind me that I am clumsy, and flawed and when my heart is ugly I am ugly and bad things happen to ugly people. There is a myth there.

I cleaned all my uggs today

I practiced patience and haven’t brushed them

I want to

There is a strong urge pull

I feel I am denying myself honoring any impulses.

Smoking. Cutting. Sleeping. Brushing (the uggs).

I guess someone from the outside could say, “that is a little win, good job.”

But all I can think about is wanting to brush the fucking uggs

I lost my wallet today.

A thought haunting me.

A man yelled at the 57th street station.

I kept moving forward.

I was not curios.

I did not turn.

Did he find my wallet today.

I think I am so - or I am performing I am so disappointed in myself mad so Ben won’t reprimand me maybe. If I wail on my emotional self enough… I am tired. The performing in my own home. Wanting him to think my days are filled enough. That I am doing enough. That his sacrifice is worth my what ever the fuck I am doing enough. It’s not. I need something that is mine. I thought this business was that but I want to cut my losses. I need this chapter to be over. I need it to leave my life. I want to be done.

cut my fucking losses
