Merry Christmas

Hey, just wanted to say either this blog doesn't have any readers or y'all are jackasses. Probably the former, but still.

I'm tired, I was woken up this morning because I had to go to NYC to have Christmas dinner with Dad. He's such a fucking annoyance. I love him to death, but he's very needy. He always wants me over, always wants to see me. I do too, but it's such a hassle. I resent the fact that I need to travel to see my own father. That I have to go down to NYC all the time, or else I'm a bad son. That instead of being able to enjoy a nice Christmas with my family, sit and relax on my one day off in weeks, I have to get up early to ensure (yet again) that I am on time, that I make my train, that I sleep in a different bed, that I'm away from home on Christmas. Not cool.

Ugh. I gave him a bottle of sake. I was holding it in my hands an hour ago. I wanted to break it and slash my wrists. Or drink it all. Or smash it over my head and knock myself out. I was having a good Christmas two or three hours ago. I don't know what happened. I watched the Simpsons Movie with Dad. I doubt that did it. He played some music that reminded me of Shayne. I don't know. All I know is that I loved her, she's gone, I'm trying to move on, create meaning where there is none, and only finding that I'm helpless.

I don't know exactly why this depression has taken hold of me, but I have no control over it, and it makes me want to do awful things. I'm not myself, and I don't know if I can ever get back to being the old me. I don't want to live like this, but I don't know what to do. The psychologist's was good for a bit, but now it's just the same old. I'm working, I'm depressed, I don't know what to do. He doesn't have any answers. We've talked about all the relevant issues. He thinks mourning Shayne is just a phase, something that will pass. As for the rest, well, I'm employed, and feeling good about my employment, so that's not it. I'm just insecure. I DON'T KNOW!!! I don't have the slightest clue why I'm sad, and this guy can't do a damn thing. The pills aren't working. I'm approaching the end of my rope, so to speak. I know I've said this before, but if this trip doesn't do something for me, I don't know what I'll do.


FUCK!!!!


Merry Christmas everybody. Seriously, let me know you're reading this if you are.

Things will change. It's hard to believe this until things actually change.

Constantly remind yourself that things; people, situations, external circumstances, even things you have control of; those are not the things making you feel the way you do. A really good friend of mine recommended that I started meditating. He gave me this book about Buddhism and I just read a few bits. No matter what your beliefs are, I think meditation is a perfect way to relax, even just for a few seconds, minutes.

It might help, it might not. But hey, why not try!
