I've been thinking, as per usual.
I think the reason I get hurt so easily, is because I attach to anyone and everyone. Even if they aren't particularly kind to me.
I need to start working on detaching myself from these people, even if they've told me they're my friends, so that I don't hurt myself. Because I do, I hurt myself every second I'm not in contact with at least one person I'm attached to. So I'll have to 'ween' myself off of my addiction of being accompanied all the time. Not that hard, I hope.
But Ive noticed how desperate I get when I'm waiting for someone, or when someone suddenly has to leave me for whatever reason. I get anxious when I feel I'm being rejected, when I feel alone. All because I attach to everyone like it's nothing.
So, I'll be working on re-directing my attachments. It's all I can think of. Instead of people, I'll cling to things. I can have things on me all the time, and things won't leave me. I can lose them, but then it'll really, actually be my fault. It won't be my imagination that it's m fault. It sounds better than what I'm doing now.
I'll find more things to distract myself with in the meantime; distract myself from the fact that the people I cling to are not available whenever they become so. To stop myself from hanging out in places they show up, desperately looking for them in every face. Staring at the list of people that are online until I see their names light up.
It's gotten really bad.
I need to let them go.
And cling to either things
Or to someone who is there all the time
The difficulty with clinging to God, is that I don't believe He's there for me.
Maybe this is why I desperately attach to whomever crosses my path.
I guess I'll have to work on this as well.
Isn't it easier to attach to God instead of things, than to God instead of people?

Flurry
So it goes.I was sexually abused as a kid by an older girl. Sorry if the name mislead you, but I'm a girl.
...
I don't know who Jacob is, but he is the one I relate to the most. I found him, and he kept telling me how he was betrayed as a child, by someone he loved. Betrayed, over and over again by someone he trusted.
He didn't remember, until he was older, and that person came back.
I didn't remember until I was older.
Until after Jake told me what happened to him.
Mine is different.
She didn't come back.
She wasn't really even my friend either. She was the daughter of one of my mom's friends. We; my mother, father, brother, sister and me; we went to that woman's house often. My parents would go talk to her and her husband, about ground-up things I guess. My brother would go with their son, and they'd play video games. I would too, when she wasn't around, but they were boys, and I wasn't, so I'd usually end up being with her. She'd tell me to go with her. My sister, I don't remember what she did, though I guess she just stayed with my parents.
...
I don't know all that has happened to me. In fact, I can only remember about 3 instances with her. They're the ones that have always sort of been there, but I kept ignoring them. I still try to push them away, but I can't ignore them anymore.
I can feel a lot of things that aren't contained in those 3 pieces of memory. So many things, that it doesn't make sense that she was the only one. Why can my body feel this?
I'm afraid, that all that Jake is telling me, has happened to me. Where would he have gotten everything from, if not from me? Didn't I make him? He's only a character I drew one day, years ago.
There are some things, I can safely assume have never happened to me. Some of them are just things I've written that come from nowhere. For reference, I'll label them 'just for kicks'.

Terrifying
So
Speaking of scary
It seems
That a while back
I started getting memories
Of things
That happened
A long time ago
I'm afraid
I'm so afraid
Of remembering
What will happen?
Who will help me?
Who can help me?
Can I tell you?
What will you do?
What will you say?
What will you think?
I'm so scared
Of myself
How could this have happened?
How?
Why?
Why did this happen to me?
I don't understand
So I stopped them
They have ceased
The memories
But I can feel them
Screaming
Tearing apart
With different voices
All of me asunder
They beg to be let out
Shall I let them?
Now that I know?
I let them
Out
Before I knew
What they were
They were scary
And beautiful
I knew them
Far away I knew them
And felt them
My children
My babies
And I saved them
And kept them secret
From everyone
Now they've grown
And are begging
Yelling
Screaming
To be let out
I can't sleep
Because they tell me
They speak to me
And they let me feel them
They let me feel what I've forgotten
I don't
Want
To feel
If that is what I'll feel
I'd rather not
Please
Stop it
Stop
I can't
I'm sorry
Stay inside
Breathe in
Breathe out
Short
Sharp
Breaths
Inhale
Exhale
Quick
Strong
Fast
I tremble
Who can hold me down?
Who will do it?
I have lost
And they are coming
This is what this is for
For them
They will speak
And I will hear them
For better or for worse
Though it may cause me pain
Though I will be torn
I will listen
Will you listen with me?
I'm so afraid...

Next
This,
The next one
Might reveal me.
Have you found me?
Tell me so.
I'd rather know
That I've been found
Please let me know
Please

All of this
All of this is insane
Slowly
I drive myself into a corner
My corner
It's safe in here
Because no one will see me
No one will know
I'm sorry if I offend you
I offend myself though
So it's okay
Please don't write to tell me this is dumb
I know it is
I know I am
But this is how I am getting out
Little
By little
By little
Drip
Drop
Breathe in
Breathe out
I write
And draw
But mostly write
Things that no one sees
Now you shall see them
I shiver in my corner
Are they good?
Not
But I can breathe
After
Once they're out
So I let them out
Here

Mess
Messing around
One restless night
This was thought to be good
Is it?
We shall see
As time passes
And it grows on me
And it grows
What a mess...
So it goes
