I cant breathe through this mask

speaks masses to me.






Sometimes, i put videos, or music or pictures down here as it is my journal my diary, not because I'm LAZY but purely because it speaks from me or expresses exactly from where I am, what i am in, how I am feeling.(why am I explaining myself here?) Today i am also plainly just tired, exhausted. I was in therapy this afternoon and there was a moment when i felt as if i could fall asleep right there and then on the pillow "her" pillow, on the couch "her" couch. I believe I am growing closer to trust if i was comfortable enough to truly want to just lay my head down and fall asleep. No it is in no way because it is boring, anything but= in not to many words I would say it was because it was stimulating, in the emotional sense, processing, processing is hard work, take my word for it. Just tired, tired of my mind.


It's a given that my migraines would be worsened on Tuesdays , "my sexy therapist" days (that was my ring tone for her for a while. A short while. A very short while as she is now my "welcome to the mental health hot line" more apt, although they kinda go hand in hand :) I'm going off here, my migraines, way worse, i got home,got sick slept 4 hours, I'm up now and will probably go to bed after I try and smoke (not sure how that's gonna go down) I find it so strange how I find it so hard to just look after myself sometimes, to day it was a little like that, but I was so relieved to just get into bed and say "this is okay"
I don't need to breathe through this mask if I just rip it off. Slowly,dismantle what doesn't work for me and keep it at bay, no not at bay, non exist.


i leave you with this...


"Sour Times"






To pretend no one can find
The fallacies of morning rose
Forbidden fruit, hidden eyes
Courtesies that I despise in me
Take a ride, take a shot now

'Cause nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you do
Covered by the blind belief
That fantasies of sinful screens
Bear the facts, assume the dye
End the vows, no need to lie, enjoy
Take a ride, take a shot now

'Cause nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you do
Who am I, what and why?
'Cause all I have left is my memories of yesterday
Oh these sour times
'Cause nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you do
After time the bitter taste
Of innocence, decent or race
Scattered seeds, buried lives
Mysteries of our disguise revolve
Circumstance will decide ....

'Cause nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you do

'Cause nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you
Nobody loves.. meIt's true
Not, like, you.. do

Dial analyst



"I'm not at liberty to say!" 

Don't you hate it when people say that, not at liberty to say, the meaning is so brutal, to think that freedom could pull my strings as this statement does, let me repeat it one more time , not at fucking liberty to say.

My blood wants to fume through my veins and come up through my skin every time. Oh but why is this moving the planet in my head off its axis so abundantly. I can tell you and it may seem absurd, but that may be cos it is a little, just a bit.

In this case this statement I will refrain from repeating from here on was said by a therapist about another therapist. (sounds like I'm gonna tell one of those jokes "so this therapist walked into a bar.....") Therapist b happened to be my therapist once "long long long long long -sarcastically-long long many moons ago" 

I journeyed to therapist a today,who I haven't seen for some weeks,when I went through her door I naturally wanted to swing y arms around her and embrace, just a big wholesome hug. I didn't as I probably couldn't and I struggle with this sort of thing, I don't get why not.I wander if she has a therapist to, that a natural instinctive question too, you would think with all the shit they have to listen to all day added with their own life's it should be a given, especially when one is so passionate.... but I'm going off subject now.
 I never knew by the end of the session I would be walking away repeating that ever so annoying statement that irks me so perfectly, the one that has me knocking on the door of therapist b.

Therapist b) I used to have a fortune of feelings for her, a couch crush,everyone I know knows the story.Therapy ended,I met her once,saw she was beautiful in "real" life and life went on. Tried not to think about her as I knew it was wrong and seriously why would someone like her ever reciprocate, besides it being unethical of course. All the insecurities of not being good enough,or being her type or having a job or and or and or and through my head, I never once thought she was not attracted to me,not once,I had a natural in cling that we were believably besides all the or and ifs a possibility. The ethics thing kind of just passed me by. This is just who I am and how it goes. But anyway whatever. Nothing came of it as I love to believe it could of had I tried and just never did, but this is how I like to smooth things out with myself, its far easier than rejection you know or easier then exception sometimes. Almost a year later I think of her again, not that I ever stopped I just pushed it out as there is or was no point,right. 

We chat briefly , Therapist A, (who I am apparently in love with,as my mother as spread the word around town to therapist a's 'friends' which makes me sound like a therapyslut-It seems I really get around, I have a,b now I just need to find c, hey why not go all the way to z:) ) Therapist a and myself, chat briefly about therapist b, I like to pretend that I don't really care and I'm all mature and whatever is,just is. I spontaneously ask her if therapist b is "back with her crazy wife" and she answers with THE STATEMENT! 
I pretend like I don't give a damn, all nonchalant I am, like whatever, but something crazy is going on inside of me, I'm starting to feel jealous. Jealous, come on? you can not be serious, about therapist b who is no longer therapist b to me and is now just M. who from time to time I want to pick up the phone and say hi, sometimes spend weeks creating messages in my mind when all they will simply say is, "hey,I'm not sure how this works,if this works,but do you wanna go for a drink" or "hey,do you wanna go for a drink" and all I have to do is wait for yes or no, because really at the end of the day if its no there will be no difference, will there, and if its yes well then its yes.

But still jealous, what the fuck is that about. If anyone can understand this, i say bring on that advise cos I'm willing to take it like a grown up. 

What is it about therapists, what is it about you? I cant stop wanting to know.


I initially typed up a whole lot of stuff in this space and it has been deleted and perhaps thats for a reason, all I remember is I was babbling about a and be and me and we. It was an entire paragraph and its gone? where to I ask where to?


Let me go back and cook, cos I have a flight of theories coming through. And yes I feel like a god damn fool saying all this,I feel a little ridiculous feel like twat even (considering I'm going on about a phantom crush) , but so what, I feel, they my feelings.

Deal.

See ya later.







"It is a regular observation that when you talk to an individual, and this individual gives you insight into its inner preoccupations,interests,emotions, in other words,hands over his personal complexes,then you get slowly and really really into the situation,of a sort of authority, you become a point of reference, you know you are in possession of all the important items in a persons development.

Now you see that creates an emotional relationship to the analyst. and that is what Freud called transference-which is a central problem of analytic psychology.
it is just so as if these people have handed out their whole existence, and that can have very peculiar effects on the individual. Either they hate you for it or they love you for it,but…you are not indifferent to them.

The archetype is a force it has an autonomy,it can suddenly seize you ,it is like a seizure" -Carl Jung


old skool.... (don't believe in everything freud has ever conjured up, just for the record,my record) s's and g's with a bit of t's.

my shrink goes to raves

I sat there smiling. No just any smile, the one that shines through my eyes first, tingling down my cheeks, touching my lips and mouth sings with that smile.

So I sat there smiling, opposite my shrink. In her normal form. Long skirt, white blouse,cut low enough to see her breasts but still Conservative in her way. She is somewhat nerdy by nature.
She spoke to me as she always does in her stern placid tone, "You're manic!",rubbed her hands together with spark in her eye like some child who just received a sweet.

"i don't know if I'm manic, I just create a lot of things to do that keep me very busy from 7 am to midnight" I paused, "its more like, keep busy to keep up." she kept rubbing her hands.
 "I mean its not manic when its positive?surely.", her hands became still. I looked her in the eye and I felt "that" smile glide through me,  "all I do is design,design,design" realising what i meant was "designing a way not to be sad" , I like what she said next, "whats important here is,I believe you know, is youre not depressed with this disease, youre sad because you want to connect." I understood and felt exactly what she meant but I went on and on about bipolar theories and people who don't understand it and how its even relevant to me (oh I'm bi-polar,that's how) Once I was done with my monologue she comforted me in knowing "There is  healthy manic, medication doesn't take you away and if you being very creative there isn't a problem" no problem.

I sat there on that chair, trying to hide behind it, I was trying to hide my face, my face wanted to show that I was laughing. I had a "if I could put my hand in front of my face moment" I would.
 I however have mastered the art of masking such things when need be. I sat there staring at her listening , my gut desperately wanting to giggle, we were chatting about me getting out and how "hard" it is to make friends. 


I don't take any advise from her on this regard as i honestly don't think she has a fucking clue. She made comments such as "its harder to make friends as you get older,if you were at varsity you would be in a basketball club or a chess team" seriously woman, sure id be playing basketball on the chessboard. She  then suggested I make some "gay"friends by going to a "gayrave" what the fuck is a gay rave. Like I said I was gagging to giggle but not really at her, its kind of cute..

end of session

  • I had a temper tantrum because my grass was not mowed,ripped the grass with my hands and threw it at management- great entertainer
  • i lost myself to creativity
  • i found myself in creativity
  • i am what i am
