\u00a0It doesn&#8217;t matter whether I&#8217;m angry or feel compassion I&#8217;m still just excluded and it&#8217;s never going to stop.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve alienated all my friends and I&#8217;m not just going to die without a partner I&#8217;m truly going to die alone. \u00a0I&#8217;m going to live in some shitty old folks home doing puzzles in the air like the Maria Bamford joke. \u00a0I&#8217;m seriously wondering if the rest of my life is going to be filled with new and humiliating ways to discover that I&#8217;m even more of a failure.<\/p>\n<p>My fucking dad tried to call me and we go through the same fucking thing every time where he tries to get me to call him on the phone and pretend like nothing happened last time and I remind him about the boundary problems and then he&#8217;s like we&#8217;re never talking again like a sulky child. \u00a0It&#8217;s the worst. \u00a0I should know better than to try to open up to him about my feelings. \u00a0It&#8217;s watching my most snotty self-destructive tendencies play out before me in of course the most cartoonish immature possible way. \u00a0I&#8217;m much more sophisticated but that just lets me to a more insidious slow burn damage where I fool people into wanting to get close to me first.<\/p>\n<p>All this therapy and I don&#8217;t feel like it&#8217;s doing any good. \u00a0Got it&#8217;s so tiring to try and convince people I&#8217;m loveable when I don&#8217;t feel like I am. \u00a0I know you&#8217;re not supposed to try, it doesn&#8217;t matter I just feel like the black sauce that&#8217;s me pouring out the hole in my chest and making a hole on the floor. \u00a0It&#8217;s magnificent.<\/p>\n<p>I thought I was talented and I&#8217;m not enough. \u00a0I fought so hard to get out of Rockford so I could become the special person I was supposed to be and in the process I discovered my own lack of anything really distinguishing except being kind of mildly mentally ill. \u00a0God is this getting older? \u00a0Just repeatedly discovering how deep your damage goes and losing hope increasingly that you have any hope to really heal in a meantingful way. \u00a0How much further can I lower my expectations for myself and my life? \u00a0How many more people are going to trust me only for me to hurt them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Did droogs over the weekend so maybe that&#8217;s the reason but I just feel crushed and lonely with a huge hole in my heart. \u00a0TechnoDruid has been kind of absent from IM and he&#8217;s kind of my closest friend and confidant. \u00a0I don&#8217;t know if he&#8217;s taking a little space on purpose or just busy [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-110","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-daily-log"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/log.danieltalsky.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/log.danieltalsky.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/log.danieltalsky.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/log.danieltalsky.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/log.danieltalsky.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=110"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/log.danieltalsky.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":111,"href":"https:\/\/log.danieltalsky.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110\/revisions\/111"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/log.danieltalsky.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=110"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/log.danieltalsky.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=110"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/log.danieltalsky.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=110"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
