One thing I love about myself is how self conscious I am. I am very in tune with my emotions, I know when I need time away from certain things and I know when I need to surround myself with people. I can chose to not listen to what my conscious is telling me especially if I feel weak, I may not reach out to people even if I know that I should talk to someone. I have done this more times than I can count. I have had 100s depressive episodes in my life this is not new to me. I’ve been depressed my whole life. I know how to hide it, how to fake it and how to actually let myself feel the sadness. I am not even sure how I feel right now. I am not sad but I am not happy either, I feel numb. I read somewhere feeling numb is your body’s way of shutting down because you feel way too much all at once. I Have been feeling numb since last year, actually since my dad died. I still can’t feel much. I don’t know if I’m sad, mad or happy. Who knows?
