Can I count on Nick to not judge me for some things I do sometimes? Could he help me through it? I need a close guy friend to confide in. I lost all my old ones during my depressive episodes because I would push them away or ignore them.

I’m starting to see a pattern. I’ve learned to expect every man that comes into my life will hurt me in some way then abandon me; use me and throw me away like a used tampon. I’m so scared of that that I make it happen… how fucked is that? Why do I constantly work against myself?

Sitting here alone in a tank top I know something is seriously wrong with me. I’ve been trying to act like it’s no big deal… but it is!!! I see 4 of the worst bruises I’ve ever seen in my life. They are in the midst of 17 needle marks. I look like a fucking junkie. I’ve done this to myself over the past week. I can’t believe how quickly it’s escalated. Can I tell Nick about this, or will it freak him out? Maybe I should just distance myself from him for a little while.

I always sit here and think horrible shit about myself. Then I start thinking about hurting myself. The pain makes me feel alive and the distraction from the other non-physical pain is welcome. I see what’s happening to me, but it’s like I’m a spectator and powerless to stop it.

Things aren’t going well with Nick. I can honestly say it isn’t my fault. I have never lied to him or blown him off but I can’t say the same for him. He’s been very distant and stuff since I accidentally texted him the msg I meant to send to Nikki that said “I think I’m gonna get rid of Nick today”. Damn, I felt like the biggest bitch in the world when he texted me back. I tried to apologize and explain myself and he said he forgave me a few days later, but he doesn’t really act like it.

I see myself doing these crazy things like slicing my skin with razorblades or jamming piercing needles into my veins and watching the blood drain down the sink. I know these things are crazy, but I can’t stop.
