"I'm the girl who is lost in space, the girl who is disappearing always, forever fading away and receding farther and farther into the background. Just like the Cheshire cat, someday I will suddenly leave, but the artificial warmth of my smile, that phony, clownish curve, the kind you see on miserably sad people and villains in Disney movies, will remain behind as an ironic remnant. I am the girl you see in the photograph from some party someplace or some picnic in the park, the one who is in fact soon to be gone. When you look at the picture again, I want to assure you, I will no longer be there. I will be erased from history, because with every day that goes by, I feel myself becoming more and more invisible..."
I found that in my old diary, looking back at what I've written before really shows how much I've changed. My recovery from my depression has been an evolution not a miracle. I've gone through hard times from the help of my friends- one friend to be exact. All my friends did help me, but this friend helped me the most.
Although she does not know it, she's helped me go through my depression and help me completely recover from an eating disorder. I couldn't live with my self knowing that I killed my self...if that makes any sense. The plans we made, for the future is what kept me going, I had something to look froward to.
The cure for depression doesn't lie in therapy or in the hands of a doctor. You need to find a reason to live, you need to know there are people out there who care about you and love you. You need to make plans, for next week, a month later-for the future.
So find someone, someone you could completely trust and hang out with them. Spend time with that person and you'll soon find a reason to live again
So my boyfriend just dumped me. Well, I guess he's my ex now. I don't even know why he did. He said he needed space or time to be alone. Yet it doesn't make sense, he wants to see other people. I'm so confused, I loved him so much. I gave up so many things for him, I didn't apply to Dartmouth-my dream college, because he didn't want me to be far away. I didn't apply to Brown or Northwestern. My grades, are so low, I'm failing. My best friend and I don't seem to have the same bond as before. My relationship with my parents worsened.
Did he not think of these things when he broke up with me? Did he give up anything for me? All I asked was for him to stop smoking. I only wanted the best for his health. And he didn't stop.
I guess he was lying when he told me he "loved me" or he "wants to spend the rest of his life with me" . You don't just stop loving something out of no where.
And I, I was a fool to believe him. Not only did he break my heart once, he did it again. He shattered into a million pieces.
Things aren't going so well lately.My parents are driving me nuts. I'm tried of hearing people say : "They're only doing this because they care about you." Yeah Right! You don't even know how much of a pain they are. There is a fine line between discipline and abuse, and they crossed that line.
I decided that I am going to be applying early decision to Dartmouth College. I want to be as far away from them as possible. I know I am going to miss New York, and all my friends here, but I can't take it anymore. Maybe going away for a while is just what I need. I need time to think and figure out what to do with myself. And Dartmouth is perfect, its a good school, in a quiet area and I might actually get in.
No one believes that their life will turn out "just kind-of" okay.
We all think we're going to be great, or at least some part deep down inside us.
And from the day we decide to be a certain someone, or something, we are filled with expectations.
Expectations of the trails we will blaze, the people we will help, who we will touch, and the difference we will make.
Great expectations of who we will be. Where we will go, and then...
We get there.
We all think we're going to be great.
And we feel a little bit robbed when our expectations aren't met.
But sometimes, our expectations sell us short
Sometimes the expected simply pales in comparison to the unexpected. You have to wonder why we cling to our expectations;
the expected is just what keeps us steady, standing, still.
The expected is just the beginning.

the unexpected, is what changes our lives
Ever had those times when nothing makes sense? Life seems like a hopeless long road. And you just feel like giving up?
Well thats how I feel right now. I'm not sure what to do anymore. I feel like giving up, but if I do give up, I know I will regret it when I'm older. My grades in school are awful, I have no talent and I just suck as a person.
My dreams are falling apart and I don't feel as if I can accomplish anything.
I know life isn't supposed to be this easy, but I didn't know it was going to be this hard.
I feel so lost, it's like I don't have a purpose anymore. I don't like doing the things I used to like. I feel like I don't even exist anymore.
I really don't know what to do anymore, life has no meaning.
